📌 IMPORTANT

Not everything called "funding" is FREE MONEY.

🔵 Scholarship = Usually does not need to be repaid
🟢 Grant = Usually does not need to be repaid
🟠 Loan = Must be repaid
🟣 Business support = Training, mentorship, market access and/or funding opportunities

🚨 BEWARE OF SCAMMERS!

Never pay someone simply because they promise to "secure" a government grant or scholarship for you.

Always verify the opportunity through the official organisation's website before submitting your information or paying anyone.
