As part of the grant, the Fitting Curve received a free TV ad campaign for its lingerie shop.

"As a small business, traditional forms of marketing always seemed out of reach for us. The ‘Pay It Forward’ program allowed us to reach not only our target demographic but also so many new clients," said Stephanie Vincent, Co-Founder of The Fitting Curve. "It really broadened our horizons of how investing in marketing but also in ourselves is worth it. We were surprised how much our commercial stayed with viewers and potential clients weeks and months after it aired and the word of mouth. It really proved the point of paying it forward."
