Small businesses are the backbone to the U.S. economy and the sector is growing. According to the SBA, more than half of Americans either own or work for a small business, and they create about two out of every three new jobs in the U.S. each year. Small business owners face a long list of challenges. For many, the obstacle of securing financial resources needed to grow a business claims the top spot on the list. That’s the driving force behind LendingTree’s inaugural $50,000 Small Business Grant Contest, where the winning small business will receive $50,000 to fund the needs of the growing business.
