As women-owned businesses continue to grow, one of the significant obstacles they face is unequal access to funding and venture capital.

Also, grants do not need to be paid back as long as the requirements and obligations are met. The following small business grants for black women entrepreneurs provides them with the capital to take their startup or established business to the next level.
