The Trustees of the Pro-NJ Grantor Trust have announced that the application window to submit an Expression of Interest (EOI) for grant funding is now open.

This application window is dedicated to small, woman-owned and minority-owned businesses (SBE, WBE and MBE). Business owners who fit into those categories may pursue the first step in the process by downloading the Request for Expressions of Interest. To help improve access to funds, the Trustees determined the best way for that to occur is for interested business owners to submit Expressions of Interest (EOI). Once the EOIs are reviewed by the Trustees and members of the Advisory Committee, qualified applicants will be invited to submit formal proposals.

The application period to submit EOIs is set for four weeks, until 5 p.m. on February 26. The window may be extended depending on the number of EOIs received. Following the award of funds to small, woman-owned and minority-owned businesses, the Trustees will publish a second Request for Expressions for Interest directed toward coastal municipalities and counties in Ocean, Atlantic and Cape May counties.

• Onshore and offshore light logistics and services
