From honey farms and hot sauce startups, to restaurants and bakeries, countless small businesses use Ball brand home canning jars and lids every day to share their products with customers. Small businesses who use Ball brand home canning products in some way are encouraged to submit to the program for a chance to win.

"Small businesses are the heart of our country and our Ball brand home canning products business. We have been moved by the support our small business customers have shown their communities this past year, and they've inspired us to do more as well. We have created the Made For More Small Business Fund to celebrate and honor them, offering our platform to further their businesses and provide monetary funds to help them grow," says Kris Malkoski, CEO, Food Business Unit at Newell Brands.

As a lifelong fan of mason jars Milk Bar founder, Christina Tosi, is paying it forward by teaming up with the Ball brand home canning products and using her voice and platform to encourage small businesses to enter the Made For Small Business Fund.

"From growing Milk Bar over the past 12 years, I know what running a small business is like and know the importance of support during challenging times like these," said Tosi. "I've been blown away by how many have found new and inventive ways to show up, proving the power and passion small businesses have in our lives. I'm incredibly honored to partner on this important Made For More initiative, and to support the businesses who keep our communities going."

The 10 winners will be awarded $10,000 each to use towards their businesses with the remaining 10 finalists awarded $1,000 each. In addition to the grants, the selected businesses will be showcased on the social media channels for Ball brand home canning products with potential for exposure on packaging, and provide owners business mentorship opportunities from Newell Brands' senior executives.
