If there is anyone out there who knows where I can write (any government programs) in order to get a government grant (that you don't have to repay) to help start my business "please" let me know...I also need info on how to write it ( is thre a certain way to do so?) I appreciate any help...if you do help me be sure to include your address if you want to so when my company gets off the ground i'll send you clothing from my new line (i'm not kidding either!) of course I don't expect it to happen over night but pretty soon I already have it up and running I just want to keep it going) i'd definately stay in touch so you can wear my styles!!

Um yes there is. But there are rules and regulation. You can get a program to teach you how to write the grant the right way. Cause they look for specific things.

Go to http://www.grants.gov for a list of government grants and how you can apply for them. However, there are no grants for a for profit business unless you are opening a daycare and then it is a minimal amount. If you need money, you will need to apply for a loan. No lender will talk to you unless you provide them with a valid business plan. Go to http://www.sba.gov , http://www.score.org or http://www.bplan.com for sample business plans and instructions on how to write a business plan.

Then, go to http://www.score.org/ and in the upper left hand corner, enter your zip code. On the next screen, you will get information on the nearest SCORE chapter. Call them and arrange for a free meeting with a SCORE counselor to review your business plan and discuss various loan options available to you.
