You’d think it’s nearly impossible to find a legit small business grant for women anywhere online. A quick Google search will get you a long list of sites to check out. But a lot of these sites either look shady or they’re way too complicated government-run sites — agencies that typically give out large grants to women business owners, but only if you’re in the tech sector.
That’s not at all what we’re about. We help you find real grants, loans, and other funding for your small business. That doesn’t mean it will be easy. You’re going to have to put in some hard work and time. But if you’re serious about growing a successful business, you’ll find our site a big help.
Here’s a great and simple way to get going: Apply for our Amber Grant for Women. Business women from Alabama (and all around America) can easily apply for this grant. Our judges pick a $10,000 grant winner every month – and if you win, you’re automatically eligible for our year-end $25,000 Amber Grant. That means you could be awarded $35,000 by completing your application today.
