Are You A Woman Looking For A Grant For Your Non-Profit Business?… You’ve Found The Right Site
Stories of War
It was not a big surprise to us that around 75% of the workforce for non-profit businesses are women.
It’s also not a big surprise that non-profit business grants are nearly impossible to find. We are inspired by women who are driven to use their non-profit to provide a good or service to benefit their community and who want to invest their time and passions into a purpose-driven business model, not a profit-obsessed model.
We realize you need to make enough money to take home a reasonable salary; it’s important work, but it’s not charitable work. We know it is even harder to find financial support for your non-profit business — particularly in the form of a non-profit business grant..
We’re WomensNet — and we get it.
This $10,000 grant runs quarterly based on applications submitted from: January-March, April-June, July-September, and October-December.
Here’s How You Become Eligible for Our Quarterly Non-Profit Grant — As Well As All Our Additional Grants:
- 1. Apply for our monthly Amber Grant. By applying just once for the $10,000 monthly Amber Grant, you automatically become eligible for that month’s $10,000 Business specific grant
- 2. You do NOT have to apply again. Your single Amber Grant application also makes you eligible for any of our other grants, including:
- The $10,000 “Business Specific Category” Grant that we give away each month for the next 11 months. Here are those categories and months that they are awarded:
— January: Skilled Trades
— February: Health, Fitness & Wellness
— March: Food & Beverage
— April: Sustainability
— May: Mental & Emotional Support
— June: Business Support Services (e.g. accounting, consulting)
— July: Animal Services
— August: Hair Care & SkinCare
— September: Education & Child Care
— October: Creative Arts
— November: Technology
— December: Fashion & Interior Design
At the end of the year, we will award one of the monthly recipients an additional $25,000 grant
- The $10,000 quarterly non-profit grant for the next 3 months. (We award this grant 4 times per year).
- The $10,000 Quarterly Startup grant for the next 3 months. We award this grant 4 times per year.
- The WomensNet “Marketing Grant.” We give “hands-on” marketing help to a selected female-owned business. It includes strategic sessions with members of our AdvisoryBoard and other "friends of WomensNet.” It also includes professional agency support in developing and executing a marketing plan. This is a grant a non-profit business can win as well.
- $25,000 Year-End Grants
At the end of every year, we select a $25,000 winner from the 12 monthly $10,000 Amber Grant winners -and- a $25,000 winner from the 12 Business Category Grants winners. This means your business could win a total of $35,000 in grant money by submitting just one application.

Past Non-Profit Business & Organizations Winners
The Amber Grant Fund has grown through the years. That growth is reflected in two ways by the winners below. First, by the increase in the dollar amounts of each grant. Second, by the increase in how many times a grant is given.
