Dear readers, brewers, and industry professionals,
In recent days we have been trying to figure out a way we can help small businesses in the brewing industry that have been materially impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. We believe we have come up with a meaningful way to help those businesses in need of additional exposure and customers.
We’d like to formally announce the launch of the Craft Beer & Brewing Cares Grants, which will award $100,000 of advertising to its recipients over the next few weeks. Starting today, March 26, we are accepting applications for $5,000 grants, which take the form of advertising credit on any of the Craft Beer & Brewing properties. No purchase is necessary. Any independent small business in the brewing industry that has been negatively impacted over the past 30 days is eligible. All you need to do is fill out this short questionnaire with your company name, contact info, a description of the product(s) you sell, and 200 words on why you should receive a grant. Grants will go to 20 deserving companies.
