<h2 class="text-2xl font-bold mb-4">Our Goal</h2>
<p>
Our mission with this Microgrant Guide and Merge Club is to put more non-dilutive capital into the hands of ambitious young builders.
To achieve this, we believe three key steps are essential: raising awareness, improving the quality and availability of information, and growing the number of existing microgrant programs.
<br>
<br>
The Microgrant Guide addresses the first two challenges.
It helps you discover and apply to programs offering non-dilutive funding by raising awareness of alternative opportunities and providing a centralized hub for all microgrant and non-dilutive capital information.
