Businesses 50%+ woman-owned and woman-run; idea stage welcome. $15 fee. https://www.yippitydoo.com/big-idea-grant-terms-and-conditions/ Several of these run every month — if you miss November 30, the next round closes December 31. The two that do **not** come back monthly are the Tory Burch Fellows Program (annual) and the IFW Startup Accelerator Grant (this round). --- Two things that are always true: 1. **Applying for a grant is always free.** Application fees above are charged by the funders themselves, on their own sites — never pay a third party to "get" you a grant. 2. **Nobody can guarantee you a grant.** Anyone who promises guaranteed approval for a fee is running a scam.
