Our mission at The Couvent Collective is to empower businesses in manufacturing and logistics to lead meaningful change within their industries and communities. Through the Margery Cutchmore Visionary Grant, we provide accessible financial support to entrepreneurs who exemplify innovation, sustainability, and social responsibility. Even modest funding can ignite transformative progress, and this grant is designed to be a vital step in your journey toward success.

We envision a future where manufacturing and logistics businesses drive economic growth and serve as champions for social equity and environmental stewardship. The Margery Cutchmore Visionary Grant is a catalyst for this vision, enabling businesses to thrive and creating a ripple effect of positive change that uplifts communities and advances shared goals.

Our core values—inclusivity, transparency, and impact-driven innovation—guide everything we do. As part of our commitment to fostering a supportive and dynamic ecosystem, we aim to equip businesses in these essential industries with the resources and tools they need to scale their vision and achieve lasting success. Together, we can build a future defined by equity, sustainability, and meaningful impact.

HOW IT WORKS

Each quarter, we open our grants to businesses, welcoming their applications for the grant through our user-friendly online application. The application window is open quarterly. After a diligent review process, we select one recipient from the business category - manufacturing and logistics. The eagerly awaited announcement of the grantee takes place on the 15th of the month after the quarter, and the funds are disbursed to the recipients by the month’s end.

WHAT WE AIM TO SUPPORT

Our primary goal is to fuel the endeavors of businesses and nonprofits that are actively making a significant impact within their communities and beyond. We are committed to providing financial assistance where a modest grant of $2500 can spark meaningful progress for your business or nonprofit’s mission.

Mid 2025, we will increase the number of grant participants to 5 per month.
