The Hey Helen Grant

The Hey Helen Grant is a privately funded initiative by Visionaries that invests in women entrepreneurs building impact-driven, for-profit businesses in the U.S. Each month, one founder will receive a $10,000 unrestricted cash award — designed to fuel whatever moves your business forward, whether that’s operations, growth, marketing, hiring, or infrastructure. This grant is open to businesses that are at least 50% women-owned, generate less than $1M in annual revenue, and are legally registered in the United States. Please note that pre-revenue applications are welcome as well! (Nonbinary applicants assigned female at birth or who feel aligned with the intent of the grant are also welcome to apply.) If you’re building something with purpose, grit, and integrity — and just need a little extra backing to take the next leap — you’re in the right place.
