Quadriplegic Needing Grant Money For A Clothing Business

by Christopher Chlouber
(Oklahoma City, Oklahoma)

Christopher Is Looking A Business Grant To Ensure A Good Future For His Family

Christopher Is Looking A Business Grant To Ensure A Good Future For His Family

I'm a quadriplegic needing grant money for a clothing business. When I was 21 I was a victim of a violent act. I was run over twice by an individual in a police pursuit. This took place on the 4th of November in 2005.

I was hospitalized for six months and moved back in with my mother after a short rehabilitation. My 5th and 6th vertebrae were crushed during the accident rendering me a complete quadriplegic.

I am a father of a five-year-old boy, a student with a 3+ GPA and in the process of furthering my success as a businessman. I currently am living on SSI and about to be living in a Section 8 property. My money has become very tight and would be taking food from our mouths if I dropped any more money into this.

I understand that I am most likely not going to have the time on earth that will be needed to see my son grow into a man I want to do all I can to ensure his future so that he will have all the tools to be a responsible and educated man. To do this I am pushing myself as hard as I can to get my business going full speed.

I have invested nearly $5,000 into a screen-printing and designer clothing business. Black and White Clothing LLC based out of Oklahoma City. As we start our designer lines of clothing we will be screen-printing to keep everything running financially.

The bump in the road currently is that as we contact and obtain clientele we are seeing that there is a lot of opportunity with larger clients that have a high interest in other apparel that we are capable of producing. We just don’t have the money required for the equipment.

With a government grant we would be able to open a retail/warehouse location, purchase needed equipment and supplies, invest in marketing and advertising, and obtain larger contracts with bigger businesses and organizations.

If anyone could point me in the right direction for assistance, specifically for a quadriplegic needing grant money for a clothing business please contact me at blackandwhiteclothingllc@gmail.com.

Small Business Venture -- Great!
by: Katina

You sound like an amazing person! So full of motivation for starting a new business. That's great!

Have you contacting anyone about Victim's assistance? It's available in most US states. It isn't enough to start a new business; however it may help with some living expenses due to living with a disabling condition.

Here are a few resource links to get you started. Please let us know if they help.

http://www.IRS.gov
http://www.grants.gov -- Small Business Grants (Apply for DUNS, CCR, ORCA...)
http://www.disability.gov -- Great Place to Start for anyone with a disability!
http://www.grantgate.com -- FREE grant program!
http://www.federalgrantfinder.com ? FREE Federal Grant Money Program!

Sincerely,

Katina from Accessible.org
