Tiny Daily Kick Micro Grants

NOW ACCEPTING APPLICATIONS: PLEASE VISIT HERE TO APPLY ONLINE!

A small nudge. A real beginning.

Tiny Daily Kick has always been about momentum — the quiet kind.
The kind that doesn’t shout or promise miracles, but helps you take one real step forward.

Over time, I've realizeded that encouragement alone isn’t always enough.
Sometimes, a small financial boost at the right moment can make the difference between thinking about something and beginning it.

That’s why the Tiny Daily Kick Micro Grants exist.

What are the Micro Grants?

The Tiny Daily Kick Micro Grants are small, discretionary grants designed to help individuals kickstart or move forward with a specific project, helping hand, an idea, or initiative.

They’re not about rescue.
They’re not about hardship.
They’re about momentum.

A Micro Grant might help someone:

  • begin a creative project

  • take the first step on a personal initiative

  • test an idea they’ve been sitting with

  • remove a small but real financial barrier

The focus is simple:
small support, given at the right time, to help someone move forward.

Who funds the Micro Grants?

The Micro Grants are fully funded by Zen Media Group, the company behind the Tiny Daily Kick podcast.

Each year, money is set aside to be given directly to individuals through the Micro Grants program.

There are:

  • no public donations

  • no fundraising

  • no pressure on listeners to contribute

This is simply part of Tiny Daily Kick’s commitment to being more than a podcast — to turning encouragement into action where it can genuinely help.

Who can apply?

Micro Grants are intended for people who:

  • have a clear project, idea, or initiative

  • are ready to take a next step

  • would benefit meaningfully from a small financial boost

Projects may be creative, personal, or community-focused.
Applicants do not need to be in financial hardship — the emphasis is on intent and momentum, not need.

Micro Grants are typically one-off contributions, and not all applications can be supported.

How does it work?

From time to time, applications for Micro Grants will open.

When applications are open:

  • details will be shared on this page

  • and occasionally mentioned on the Tiny Daily Kick podcast

Selections are made carefully and thoughtfully, with the intention of supporting people who are genuinely ready to move forward.

A note on intention

Tiny Daily Kick exists to remind people that change doesn’t have to be big to be meaningful.

The Micro Grants are simply another expression of that belief.

A small nudge.
A little confidence.
A real beginning.

Applications will open when the next round is announced.

Please note: any support for the Tiny Daily Kick podcast (including Buy Me a Coffee) supports the podcast itself and is not used for the Micro Grants.
