Women-Owned Business Program
Eileen's Business Program for Women Entrepreneurs
It's widely known Eileen Fisher started her company with $350 and a vision. Eileen will tell you it was much more.
"Life-fulfilling work is never about the money-when you feel true passion for something, you instinctively find ways to nurture it," explains Eileen. "Looking back at my life, I see it was the support and inspiration of friends that kept me moving forward. Financial support is crucial, but even more meaningful is the energy behind the money-when someone trusts your vision and truly believes in you."
Eileen wishes to infuse that same energy into the businesses of women-owned companies.
Applications for the 2010 Women-owned Business Grant will be available September 15, 2010. Deadline for submissions will be 11:59pm on November 1, 2010.
