Attention Ladies! Get a $500 Grant towards starting your own business

To all of those women out there that are dreaming of starting up their own business this is for you! Many of you may not know but I am one of these women. As a matter of fact I just turned in all of my applications and fees for my own business which I will be starting up officially in April 2009. Through my internet travels I have come across Womensnet.net, an entrepeneurial community for women, and discovered the Amber Grant. This grant began in 1998 in conjunction with Womensnet.net to honor the memory of a young woman that died in 1981 at the age of 19. The purpose of the Amber Grant is to help other women achieve the dreams that Amber could not in her short time here. The Amber Grant is designed specifically focus on women trying to start small businesses, homebased or online. All though the grants are small, usually only $500 - $1000, they often are able to cover some of the initial and essential expenses that make the difference in getting started or being stalled. This grant is privately funded and the hope is that the receiver of the grant will pass on the kindness by helping others along the way.
