Small businesses struggling and recovering from the Covid-19 pandemic can apply for $10,000 of much needed funding until June 1.

The Small Business Relief Fund opens for applications on Monday May, 25. The funding is offered through the Council of Small Business Organisations Australia (COSBOA).

There are 67 grants of $10,000 each designed to assist businesses that are recovering from the effects of the pandemic. This fund has been made possible by a philanthropic donation from Salesforce.

The Small Business Relief Fund is aimed at supporting initiatives by small businesses to adapt and innovate in order to emerge from this challenging period in a strong position.

COSBOA would like to welcome a wide variety of proposals from applicants.

Proposed initiatives could address re-designing and re-modelling of workspaces, upgrading or adapting a business’s digital presence or a new approach to marketing.

Applications will open online at 9am on Monday, 25 May 2020 and close at 5pm on Monday, 1 June 2020.
