October 2021 Amber Grant Finalists

We’re delighted to share with you 5 finalists for the $10,000 October Amber Grant. The recipient will become the eleventh qualifier for our 2021 year-end Amber Grant ($25,000).

We’ll announce the business selected to receive the $10,000 grant by the 23rd of this month. As always, each of the runners-up will earn $1,000 in grant funds.

Note: The $10,000 Amber Grant continues to run monthly in 2021. If you’d like to apply in support of your women-owned business, you can fill out an application. In November, an additional grant of $5,000 will be awarded to a women-owned business in the Skin Care industry.

Shortly, we’ll announce the October, business-specific grant award recipient (Creative Arts, $5,000).
