Realizing the lack of direct financial grant assistance available to women wishing to start their own businesses, we decided to set-up the Happy and Healthy Mompreneur Fund. 10% of direct purchases from our marketplace will go into the fund, up to $500 annually. Each year, one mompreneur will be chosen as a recipient of the grant funds. Want to find out how some other mompreneurs have been doing it? Check out our latest interviews in our blog. Here's a link to more legitimate grants you can apply for.

Guidelines

Applications will be accepted year-round. One momprenuer will be chosen annually to receive up to $500 towards starting/ expanding a business.

Awards will be made/announced on October 30, 2010 during the Super Mompreneur Conference & Expo and applications for the next grant are due by August 31, 2010. In the event that more than one application appears to be feasible, we reserve the right to split the grant award or request additional supporting documentation. 

Applications which are incomplete will be rejected. Recipients must spend $500 by December 31st, 2010, with the final report due by January 31st, 2011.    

Disclaimer: We are not an incorporated nonprofit organization and we are not requesting or soliciting donations towards this fund. We are choosing to put aside a percentage of money received through our site in order to help other moms.
