Boyle Heights Community Partners is pleased to announce the launch of the Legacy Business Grant Program. This initiative aims to recognize and support the invaluable contributions of long-standing businesses that have shaped the unique character and history of Boyle Heights.

Through this program, we will:

• Assist eligible businesses with grant applications.
• Raise awareness of the importance of these vital community assets.
