Week of May 4th: Pitch Competitions, Grants, Accelerators and Beauty Summer School

www.grantsforcreators.com

Earlier this week, I shared a list of grants for women-owned businesses without deadlines. Did you have a chance to browse through it?

Not your thing? Don’t worry; I plan to create more of these types of lists, so stay tuned.

While creating this newsletter, I’m jamming out to some tunes, and that got me thinking — what songs would you add to your grant writing playlist?

Leave a comment below, and I’ll add your pick to our Grants For Creators playlist.
