Empowering Through Recognition: Recipient of the Biloxi Chamber of Commerce Small Business Grant

I’m incredibly honored to share that I’ve been selected as a recipient of the Biloxi Chamber of Commerce Small Business Grant! This recognition is a powerful affirmation of the work I’ve poured into my photography business since relocating to the Mississippi Gulf Coast in 2022.

The grant was presented during the Biloxi Chamber Breakfast with the Mayor on Wednesday, July 17th, hosted at the Hard Rock Biloxi. The event began at 7:30 AM with breakfast and networking, followed by the official program and grant presentations from 8:00 to 9:30 AM.

This year, the Biloxi Chamber awarded $30,000 in total grants to 15 deserving local businesses. You can read more about the event and the full list of recipients in this article by WLOX.

This $1,000 grant provides not only financial support but also a meaningful boost in visibility and connection within the local business community. It allows me to continue investing in creative tools, client experience, and initiatives that empower women through transformative portrait sessions.

I’m deeply thankful to the Mississippi Gulf Coast Chamber of Commerce and the Biloxi Chamber for selecting my business. It’s a privilege to be part of a community that uplifts and recognizes small business owners.

I’m excited to continue building Dawn V Gilmore VIP Photo into a legacy of empowerment, creativity, and impact for women and small businesses across the Gulf Coast.
