(Rock Island, IL) — Some people may think you have to have super powers or be independently wealthy to help empower women with a $10,000 grant. The folks at Royal Neighbors of America disagree.
Members of Royal Neighbors, one of the largest women-led life insurers in the nation, have the opportunity to submit a nomination now through June 15 for the 2017 Nation of NeighborsSM Program. Self-nominations are also accepted. Out of the pool of eligible applicants, 10 winners will be selected to receive up to $10,000 in grant money to help them make a difference where they live.
Royal Neighbors’ Nation of Neighbors Program provides financial support to help empower individuals to reach new goals, especially those who have a plan to start or expand a business or an organization/group that helps women and girls in their community. In 2016, 10 grants of $10,000 each were presented to women across the country. More than $1.7 million has been awarded since the program was launched in 2007.
Examples of past grant winners’ initiatives include: Launching an organization that brings female leaders together to mentor young women; opening a furniture refinishing business to help provide jobs for women in transition; and publishing a teen magazine focused on empowering young women.
