Grants For Women Of Color
Everyday I speak with potential clients that want to open their own assisted living facilities, Most of my clients are women of color looking to dive into the industry to better their lives and the lives of their families. Most of the time money is the main factor stopping clients from moving forward.
Starting a assisted living facility isn’t as expensive as most of my clients think, you can open a Assisted Living facility for well under $10k(trust me I did)
However there are plenty of grant opportunities for women of color out there. I have done some research and attaches some grants that are looking to fund women of color specifically. Don’t worry men! I am compiling a list of other grants that will work for us as well.
Below are a list of grants specifically for Black Women:
VISA’s Next Grant Program for Black Women (usually $10,000 grants)
SoGal’s Black Founder Start Up Grants
Black Girl Dream Fund ($100M for black women grants)
Building Legacy Grant (one $100,000 grant for black woman business)
American Express-IFund Women of Color
In addition,
