Jaton came to MicroGrants through Project Diva. She works for a local nonprofit and her job requires her to move around a lot. When her car broke down and she couldn’t afford to have it fixed, she was struggling with meeting commitments and, according to Jaton,
“I might have lost my job.”
She was able to get a used car with her grant and says that the car has
“literally saved my life.”
Jaton said,
“My family and I basically were rescued by MicroGrants. By being awarded the grant…I was able to be free of the stress of figuring it out day-to-day on how to get where I needed to be… The micro grant has enabled my family to continue to be on a track for success.”
MicroGrants grantmaking is currently paused as we work through internal operations and determine next steps for the program.
