"I STOPPED FEELING LIKE I DIDN'T BELONG ANYWHERE, AND REALIZED THAT I ACTUALLY BELONGED ANYWHERE I WANTED TO BE."
—SOPHIA AMORUSO
Nasty Gal Founder and #GIRLBOSS author, Sophia Amoruso started the #GIRLBOSS Foundation to "award financial grants to women in the worlds of design, fashion, music, and the arts, to help fund them on their way to becoming a GIRLBOSS." The grant process is aimed to assist recipients with grant funds ranging from $500-$15,000. Grant recipients will also receive exposure through the Nasty Gal and #GIRLBOSS digital channels. Each year the Foundation offers two application cycles, Spring/Summer and Fall/Winter. The next application deadline is July 31st, and grant award recipients will be announced on August 15, 2015. The application and guidelines are available online, or can be printed off to mail in. This is an amazing opportunity to gain financial assistance as a female entrepreneur, while also leveraging a major brand's audience to market your business.
