LIAACC and Trellus Partner to Distribute $125K in JumpSMART Grant Funding to Minority-Owned Small Businesses

The Long Island African American Chamber of Commerce (LIAACC) announces a partnership with Trellus Same-Day Local Delivery & Marketplace to distribute $125,000 in JumpSMART grant funding to minority-owned small businesses in Suffolk County. Known as the LIAACC Delivery Grant, the program aims to address unique challenges faced by minority-owned businesses competing against e-commerce giants, providing business owners with reliable, local delivery services.

In the coming months, Trellus will work closely with the LIAACC to distribute the grant funding to eligible members, providing up to $2,500 delivery grants to each recipient. Up to 40 Suffolk County small businesses will receive funding.

Minority small business owners based in Suffolk County, who are also members of the LIAACC, can apply for the grant at www.bytrellus.com/jumpsmart.
