We know 2025 was a hard year for our small business community, and we're committed to creating programs that help the backbone of our economy thrive. Yesterday, @MayorBowser launched the new Restaurant & Retail Stabilization Grant, which is a $3.875M fund to support DC’s brick‑and‑mortar restaurants and retailers. Funded by DMPED and administered by Capital Impact Partners, this program offers grants of up to $50,000 to help businesses that experience revenue loss in 2025 stay strong, stable, and rooted in our neighborhoods.
