Reeka

Reeka came to MicroGrants through the Black Women’s Wealth Alliance. She learned how to sew and used her grant to purchase a sewing machine. She now makes and sells bonnets that Black women use to protect their hair at night. This business allows her to make extra income for her and her son. Reeka said,

“This micro grant really allowed me to soar… I bought my first sewing machine and then things just took off from there.”

September 2026 Program Update

MicroGrants grantmaking is currently paused as we work through internal operations and determine next steps for the program.

For our partner agencies: We will continue to share updates directly with you as more information becomes available.

For individuals seeking a grant: MicroGrants does not distribute grants directly to individuals. Our grants are distributed through nonprofit partner agencies that identify and support eligible recipients. If you are seeking financial assistance, we recommend contacting one of our partner agencies directly to learn about available resources and eligibility.
