The organization is structured as a tax-exempt corporate entity and has been registered to receive federal awards since March 31, 2005. WWBIC focuses on providing comprehensive business development services and financial support to underserved entrepreneurial populations, particularly women-owned, minority-owned, and low-income small businesses across Wisconsin. Through its mission of fostering economic empowerment and entrepreneurship, WWBIC leverages federal grant funding to deliver training, counseling, financial literacy programs, and access to capital to help entrepreneurs overcome discriminatory barriers and establish sustainable enterprises.
WWBIC has demonstrated substantial experience managing prime federal grant awards from multiple federal agencies, with a particular emphasis on U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) programs. The organization has consistently received funding under the Women's Business Ownership Assistance program (CFDA 59.043), the Microloan Program (CFDA 59.046), the Veterans Outreach Program (CFDA 59.044), and the Prime Technical Assistance program (CFDA 59.050), with individual awards ranging from $150,000 to over $800,000. Additionally, WWBIC has received grants from the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Rural Business Cooperative Services, the Department of Treasury's Community Development Financial Institutions Fund, and the Rural Housing Service for rural business development initiatives. Through these grants, WWBIC provides direct microloans (up to $50,000 per borrower), entrepreneurship training using the SBA's "Introduction to Entrepreneurship" curriculum, one-on-one business counseling, financial literacy workshops, and technical assistance to support business startup, growth, and expansion. The organization has also served as a subrecipient of federal funding passed through municipal partners including the City of Milwaukee, City of Kenosha, City of Appleton, City of Beloit, and Waukesha County, enabling localized delivery of small business loans, microenterprise technical assistance, COVID-19 emergency support, and targeted economic development programs in specific Wisconsin communities.
