Giving Joy 2024 Grant Program for Women

The Giving Joy is currently accepting grant applications that aim to support initiatives led by women. These grants provide crucial resources to female entrepreneurs, helping them start businesses, develop skills, sustain operations, or expand their ideas on a global level. The positive effects of these small grants spread through communities, improving capabilities, expanding resource availability, creating employment opportunities, and generating revenue.

Also, the initiatives funded by the grants result in increased opportunities and support for all those impacted by the recipient’s project. Proposed grant activities must have social benefits for the community beyond financial aspects. A greater social impact increases the chances of grant approval. The funds will not support merchandise, stock, advertisements, or personal marketing. Moreover, it is essential to provide specific details about how the funds will be used (e.g., event, training). This should include estimated costs, event specifics, target audience, and benefits for women, girls, and families. Additionally, qualitative impact information such as training for 10 women, each of whom can train 10 more, benefiting 20 families and 50 children, should be provided.

Aim and Benefits

Furthermore, beneficiaries will also enjoy various amounts ranging from $250 to $500 for their businesses.

Requirements

The application is open to women from ages 18 and above.
