Description
1) Objective
At Giving Joy, they are committed to expanding our support for women-led initiatives worldwide. To give more women the opportunity to apply for our micro-grants, they are excited to announce a new application schedule tailored by geographic region. This approach allows us to dedicate focused time to each region, considering local nuances and innovations.
Starting in January 2025, their grant application periods will open quarterly, with each region receiving a one-month window to apply during each quarter. Women can use the grant to start a new business, or expand an existing business. You can also use the grant to start or expand a nonprofit, non-governmental organization (NGO), charity, or propose a specific activity or project you would like to implement.
2) Eligibility
Applicants must be women ages 18 and up.
3) Location
Actions can take place worldwide.
4) Budget
Grants are up to $500. The award amount will be determined by Giving Joy based on proposed activities and availability of funding.
5) Application
