Business Freedom Grant
This initiative provides financial support to aspiring and early-stage entrepreneurs seeking to turn their business ideas into sustainable ventures, regardless of industry or background.
The Business Freedom Grant is an initiative of Generational Wealth Builders, a private organization operating under the public identity of Darcy’s Business. Spearheaded by Coach Darcy, the grant aims to empower aspiring and early-stage entrepreneurs who possess vision, ambition, and a drive for financial independence. The initiative stems from Coach Darcy’s personal journey and commitment to supporting others striving to break free from financial constraints and turn their business ideas into sustainable income-generating ventures. Designed to promote self-sufficiency through business ownership, the grant offers up to $1,000 to individuals across industries—be they product-based, service-oriented, or digital. Funding can be directed toward critical early and growth-phase needs such as business registration, marketing, inventory, technology, and professional services. The grant positions itself not as a form of charity but as a strategic investment in individuals poised to build equity and generate long-term impact through entrepreneurship. Applicants must submit a free online application that outlines their business idea, implementation plan, the expected impact of the grant, and their personal commitment to entrepreneurial success. Applicants can enhance their evaluation by joining the Grant House community and/or Business Freedom Circle, which provide access to coaching and additional resources. Submissions are judged based on four core criteria: clarity of the business idea, feasibility, projected impact of the grant funds, and demonstrable passion and commitment. The 2025 grant cycle opens on October 15, 2025, at 11:59 PM CST and closes on December 31, 2025, at 11:59 PM CST. Winners will be selected during a review period running from January 1 to January 11, 2026, with announcements made on January 12, 2026, via Coach Darcy's YouTube channel. Finalists will also be contacted via email. Eligibility is broadly defined to include any individual with a business idea or an existing small business. There are no limitations based on industry, location, experience level, or background. However, winners may be required to provide verification such as SBA registration and tax identification. Awards are unrestricted but recipients may be required to submit a post-grant report. Preference is given to individuals subscribed to Darcy’s Business platforms. The program recurs annually, and the next cycle is anticipated to open in October 2026. Interested applicants should monitor Darcy’s Business channels in mid-to-late 2026 for updated details and next application timelines.
