Amber Grant for Women

WomensNet established the "Amber Grant" in 1998 to honor Amber Wigdahl, a young woman who passed away before realizing her business dreams. The organization now awards at least $30,000 monthly through various grants, including the main Amber Grant, Startup Grants, Business Category Grants, and three $50,000 Year End Grants. These grants are specifically designed to support women in business, whether they are starting or growing their ventures. Monthly grants of $10,000 are awarded, and monthly winners become eligible for one of three $50,000 annual grants. The grant aims to recognize the diversity of businesses owned by women.

Applying is simple and quick, requiring applicants to share information about themselves and their business aspirations. A single application makes applicants eligible for all relevant grants.
