Hagerty has launched “Restore the Roar!”—a grant program to help small businesses in the enthusiast vehicle community recover from the economic impacts of COVID-19. Grants will range from $5,000 to $10,000 and be awarded in mid-May to businesses selected based on their application.

Apply online today - the deadline is by 12:00 PM ET Monday, 4 May 2020.

To be considered for the Hagerty “Restore the Roar” small business grants, a business must:

• Be independently owned and operated
• Have no more than 20 employees
• Have annual revenue less than $5 million
• Be 50 percent focused on the collectible and enthusiast vehicle industry
• Demonstrate need based on the crisis’ impact on business

Good on you supporting an over-looked portion of our economy, but one dear to all of us.

Is there any priority given to Hagerty insureds that are collectors as well as full time restoration shops?  

[Julie]

Hi Fiat2000 - No. The Grant selection committee will not confirm if any applicants currently do business with Hagerty, have done business with Hagerty in the past or are a potential lead for future business with Hagerty.

This is why I’m a Hagerty customer. Doing something like this is great.

After completing the online grant application I see where it says the applicant will be required to summit photos and descriptions  of their work.  There was no where on the application asking for photos. How will I summit photo of our projects.

Thanks
