With the past year keeping everyone from spreading the coronavirus, a lot of businesses had to shut down while everyone was saying “support small businesses”, Yesterday. The Governor of California, Gavin Newsom announced that there will be a $9.6-billion economic recovery package. 2.1 billion dollars will go to grants for small businesses. This is great news! New grants being written and funded to ‘for-profit’ entities. Allowing quite a few businesses to remain open or reopen. However, that will not be enough? For profit businesses getting grants seems like it's new but it's not. Companies such as Wells Fargo, Chrysler, and Alliance Financial Corp have received government funding and each of them have been included as part of public, private partnerships. So how can we keep this going. Maybe just maybe, for profit businesses can keep things going being a part of Public, Private Partnerships that support their sustained capacity to keep receiving grants! Worth the thought!
