Mission & Focus Areas
AEDP’s stated mission is to promote Alexandria as a premier location for businesses by capitalizing on local assets, with the aim of increasing city tax revenue and employment opportunities. Its filing describes a program of acquiring and sharing information and statistics with businesses considering relocating to the city.
AEDP’s grant programs have supported Alexandria business organizations. The grantees’ own descriptions and program materials include organizations focused on representing business interests, supporting business districts, and serving minority and disadvantaged business owners. For example, the Alexandria Chamber of Commerce describes its mission as providing a forum for people and organizations concerned with Alexandria’s welfare, advocating business positions, representing members before government bodies, and offering educational, networking, and marketing programs.
Grantmaking
The IRS filing data reports eight grants totaling $534,265 in 2023. In the same year, the Alexandria Chamber of Commerce received $17,500. AEDP’s ALX B2B Business Association Grants page reports approximately $535,000 awarded to eight established and emerging organizations; listed awards ranged from $17,500 to $100,000. The program supported strategic planning, organizational capacity and sustainability, and programming intended to promote economic recovery and business profitability.
Other programs described on AEDP’s website include grants for eligible Alexandria small businesses and business associations. The 2024 Small Business Resiliency Grant Program offered up to $7,000 per eligible business and closed on June 18, 2024. Business Association Grants and Queen Street Corridor Grants are also listed as closed. AEDP reports awarding $500,000 in federal CARES Act funding for the Alexandria Back to Business All-Weather Grant, which supported restaurant, retail, and fitness businesses in winterizing outdoor areas. The website currently lists no open grant opportunities.
The ALX B2B program was limited to eligible existing or emerging business organizations with Alexandria members and a required cash match. It excluded individual businesses and regional organizations without an Alexandria chapter or committee implementing the proposed project. AEDP’s separate Alexandria Investment Fund is described as a discretionary grant program for local matches to state incentives, certain office or hotel development projects, and business attraction or expansion expected to significantly increase city tax revenue; support is evaluated case by case.
