Get Involved with BLD
We provide two main types of support for Detroit entrepreneurs — no-interest loans and unrestricted grants. Both are designed to build equity and empower businesses of African descent, but they work differently.

No-Interest Loan Programs
Structured, 0% interest financing options for Detroit-based businesses through our No-Interest Loan Program and Building Fund. All funding requires an application, screening, and approval prior to disbursement.

Unrestricted Grants
Flexible grants awarded to selected organizations and entrepreneurs throughout the year, providing timely financial support, strategic flexibility, and resources without a standard application or approval.
