Applicants may apply for a grant in one of six categories: small-business start-up and expansion; community development; continuing education and teacher support; child and/or elder care; health and human services; and arts and culture. One grant will be awarded in each category.
The micro grants are open to anyone whose business or program empowers women or otherwise benefits women or low-income and underserved populations in Utah and Idaho.
