🔥 Exciting news: More generous humans have raised their hands to participate in IFundWomen’s brokered grant program! This latest funding comes from an anonymous donor who is focused on putting capital into the hands of Black women-owned businesses. ⁠ ⁠ Black women represent 42% of net new women-owned businesses started last year in the U.S. The ongoing violence against the Black community undoubtedly places a strain on black women trying to launch and grow their businesses. This latest grant will give 5 recipients each a $10K grant + 1 hour of free legal counseling!⁠ ⁠ If you are a Black woman founder, please head to our link in bio to see the full criteria and to apply. Application window begins today, June 8th and closes June 15th, 2020 at 11:59PM EST.⁠ ⁠ As always, spread the news— tag a Black woman founder below 💙⁠ ⁠ *For those who have already filled out our Universal Grant Application, you do not have to reapply!
