Support 2 Inspire | Application Preview
Support 2 Inspire (S2I) is applying for government grants to fund initiatives aimed at promoting self-love and community engagement through sports and apparel. The requested funding will support social media and video promotions, inventory, website development, and the launch of an S2I sports initiative. The founder has a strong personal connection to sports, which served as a positive outlet during their youth. Recent efforts include discussions with local officials to improve community resources, such as revamping basketball courts in Caffery Park to provide a safe gathering space for youth.
The business plan focuses on understanding customer needs, expanding outreach, and building brand awareness through community involvement and sponsorships. S2I aims to inspire individuals to believe in themselves and support their communities, through a mission encapsulated in the mantra “Stay True to the Brand.” The brand also engages in charitable activities, including donations and organizing community drives.
In terms of competition, S2I distinguishes itself from brands like Revive Minds, God Is Dope, and WrldInvison with its unique backstory of overcoming personal struggles with self-esteem. This personal journey has driven the founder to create a brand that empowers others to realize their potential and foster a sense of unity within the community. S2I believes that securing funding will enhance its ability to inspire and uplift others while expanding its positive impact.

Funding Usage
The funding would be used for social media promotions, video promotion for my new items, inventory, website cost and to launch S2I sports. I grew up off of sports it was an escape for me and kept me off the streets or in trouble. I've recently started taking meetings with the mayor of Franklin, LA to donate two basketball goals and revive the court at caffery park. S2I will be a way to reach the youth and help keep them off of the streets by creating a new and improved safe space for them to hang out at and have positive fun. I will launch S2I in my home town first and for the future I plan on going to near by towns and revive there courts.

Business Plan
I plan to grow my business by continuing to understand my customer's needs and develop products and services that meet those needs, creating new strategies to reach new customer's and keeping existing customer's, attending networking events, hosting events, building brand awareness in my community with sponsorships or participating in a community event to raise my business profile, and measuring what works to refine my approach for the best results for my business. Support 2 Inspire isn’t just the name of our business, it’s a mantra. Our brand is dedicated to inspiring others to believe in themselves, build up a love of self, and support the community. Our mission statement “Stay True to the Brand” reminds us to live by these goals each day. Through our apparel line, we create clothing and merchandise that promotes self-love and unity. We also donate money to local charities, organize supply drives, and plan giveaways within our local community to those who are less fortunate. Having investors would help us expand and see this dream of helping inspire others grow to new heights.

Self Identified Competition
Revive minds is a clothing brand based in little rock, Arkansas that sheds light on gun violence. God is dope is a faith based clothing brand in Atlanta, Georgia that sheds light on "it's cool to love God". WrldInvison is a clothing brand in New Orleans that's about breaking generational curse. What sets Support 2 Inspire apart is its backstory. I was inspired to create this brand because of own personal life experiences. At one point, I really struggled with lack of self-confidence and self-love. I realized I needed to make a change so I could be a better version of myself for me and for my daughter. Once I got to a better space, I had an epiphany to start a brand that would inspire others to do the same and be the best version of themselves they can be.
