Application disclaimer:
At SpringGR, we specialize in supporting independently owned, product- or service-based businesses with direct control over their operations and revenue models. We’re passionate about helping entrepreneurs build businesses that create a positive impact in our communities.
To stay true to our mission and values, there are certain types of businesses we are not able to support through our programs. These include, but are not limited to: nonprofit organizations, businesses involving explicit sexual or pornographic content, gambling-related businesses, and businesses including cultic practices.
Note: Marijuana-based businesses are considered on a case-by-case basis. If you’re unsure whether your business qualifies, please don’t hesitate to reach out—we’re happy to talk it through. SpringGR reserves the right to update these guidelines as needed, in alignment with our organizational policies and legal requirements.
