SPACE Grant Program

On April 3, 2024, Mayor Michelle Wu announced the second round of Supporting Pandemic Affected Community Enterprises (SPACE) Grant awardees. These local entrepreneurs will receive American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funding to help them expand their businesses and move into vacant storefronts.

Two dozen small-businesses owners, including some in Boston’s Black community, who were most affected by the pandemic will receive a financial boost from the city, Mayor Michelle Wu’s office announced this week.
