The U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) awarded a $400,000 Project Grant under the Program for Investment in Microentrepreneurs (PRIME) (CFDA 59.050) to the California Association for Microenterprise Opportunity (CAMEO), a non-profit organization operating as "Cameo". The award, effective September 30, 2023 through September 29, 2024, will enable CAMEO to provide technical assistance, training, and capacity building services to increase the number of microenterprises and enhance the management capabilities of microentrepreneurs in California. As part of this project, CAMEO will deliver workshops, business coaching, financial literacy education, and other support directly to disadvantaged entrepreneurs. CAMEO has also received prior PRIME grants and partners as a sub-grantee on a microenterprise development project with Montana State University.
