Equiliberty Community Impact Foundation (ECIF) – Open Access & Sponsor Independence
All ECIF programs—including grants, sponsored events, and Small Business Pitch Competitions—are open to all applicants and attendees without regard to race, color, religion, sex (including pregnancy, sexual orientation, and gender identity), national origin, age, disability, veteran status, or any other status protected by law. Pitch competitions are open to all eligible small businesses. Judging and selection are conducted by an independent panel using published criteria; sponsors do not participate in or influence eligibility determinations, judging, scoring, finalist selection, or award decisions. If an event is ticketed or venue capacity is limited, admission is first-come, first-served and not sponsor-directed.
