The Wisconsin Economic Development Corp. has created an Entrepreneurship Partner Grant (EPG), the organization announced today.

According to a release, the EPG program is for nonprofits, communities and other eligible organizations that are working to support entrepreneurs, including groups such as people of color, women, the LGBT+ community and rural residents who may not have had access to the same educational and funding opportunities as others.

“WEDC wants to ensure that there’s room in our grant programs to support the valued organizations that have a track record of success working with entrepreneurs as well as newer innovative programs that push our entrepreneurship programs forward,” WEDC CEO Missy Hughes said in a statement.

The grants will likely range from $10,000-$200,000 and will be awarded to programs based on factors like the number of entrepreneurs served, cost-effectiveness and innovation.

Applications are being accepted between Aug. 8 – Sept. 2.
