Women’s Entrepreneurship Support

Your donation can help a woman build a sustainable livelihood, support her family and develop an independent business.

A donation of €1,550 or US$1,550 can support a single-woman or group entrepreneurship project. If you know a potential beneficiary, you may nominate her and share her contact details with us. You may also indicate the geographical area or business sector you would like your donation to support.

A market-testing grant, which enables a woman or girl to test a business idea and identify promising opportunities, starts at €155 or US$155.

Donors can contact the Foundation directly to follow the progress of their donation and the beneficiary’s project. Direct contact with the beneficiary can also be arranged at the donor’s express request.
