Synopsis

The Women's Business Center (WBC) Program was established by the Women's Business Ownership Act of 1988 (Public Law No. 100-533) as the Women's Business Demonstration Pilot, providing grants to private non-profit organizations to aid and encourage the development and growth of small women-owned businesses through long-term training and counseling. The program was expanded and made permanent in 2007 when the WBC Sustainability Grant Program, established in 1999, was replaced with the WBC Renewal Grant Program. The purpose of this funding opportunity announcement is to provide funding for up to seven existing private non-profit organizations (host organizations) of a Women's Business Center (WBC) that have met their performance goals for the past 2 years and is in good standing with both performance and compliances to start a new, community-based WBC. The WBC must be located in an area that is not being served or adequately served. The host organizations must have sufficient match to meet the match requirements of any existing grants along with any new grants.
