Welcome to the Pitt Crew Small Business Grant Application Page.
During these unprecedented and very difficult COVID-19 times, the Pittsburg Chamber of Commerce strives to help small businesses survive and thrive.
As part of our efforts, in partnership with Belleci Signs and Apparel, the Pitt Crew T-shirt program was created (thank you Belleci's) and were sold to provide funding for this program. This program and others were successful in linking to generous donations made by Travis Credit Union and Ramar Foods Intl., providing additional funds for our Pitt Crew Small Business Grant Program.
We thank you all.

Disclaimer: The Pittsburg Chamber of Commerce wishes that the grant funds could cover each and every submission. All grant applications will be carefully reviewed and considered by a Chamber committee. Applications will be disqualified if they are not complete, or if expenses do not qualify - though if some qualify and some don't, those that do may still be considered. You do not need to be a Chamber member, though some consideration will be given to members. Unfortunately grants can only be awarded up until the funds collected are depleted. Each applicant will be notified of their status as soon as possible. See the grant for further information.
