Utah businesswomen are among the most industrious entrepreneurs in America.  If that describes you — and you’re looking for grant money for your women-owned business, keep reading:

WomensNet can help you find real grants, loans, and other funding for your business venture. Yes, you’re still going to have to put in some hard work and time. But if you’re serious about getting your business to the next level, you’ll find our site a big help.

A simple place to start is with our Amber Grants for Women. Businesswomen from Utah (and all around America) are eligible to win this $10,000 women’s business grant. In fact, Utah-based Wasatch Nectar was awarded the August Amber Grant and the year-end Amber Grant in 2018.

This year, our judges are awarding three $10,000 Amber Grants each month – so today would be the perfect time to apply.  If you win this (or any) month’s grant, you’re automatically eligible for one of the year-end $25,000 Amber Grants.  That means that a few minutes right now could turn into $35,000 in total funds for your business.

After you’ve applied, please take a bit of time to check out the resources below. There are folks in Utah waiting to help women business owners just like you.  Best of luck to you and your business dreams!

Six steps you should take when looking for a business grant:

1. Analyze your organization's needs. Make sure you have a solid understanding of the:
  • Problem or need you want to address
  • Audience that will benefit from your product or service
  • Kind and amount of support you need
  • Resources and commitment your group brings to the project
  • Potential and prospective partners in the community
2. Research various types of foundations. Learn the operational differences between:
  • Corporate foundations
  • Civic foundations
  • Private foundations
3. Look for funding matches. Identify funders who:
  • Are able and likely to fund projects in your geographic area
  • Share a similar core mission or goals
  • Have already supported similar ventures or projects
4. Compile a list of prospects. Group them in two ways:
  • By Geographic Location (city, state, region)
  • By field of interest or program subject
5. Review and refine your list. Eliminate prospects that DON’T FUND:
  • In your state
  • Your type of organization
  • Your subject
  • The type of support you need
  • Your size project
6. Select the most appropriate funding prospects. Research them in detail:
  • Contact them directly to request annual reports and other publications
  • Search print and online media to identify projects that received grants in the past
  • Ask former grant recipients for advice and why they felt they were successful over other applicants
