The Giving Joy is currently accepting grant applications that aim to support initiatives led by women. These grants provide crucial resources to female entrepreneurs, helping them start businesses, develop skills, sustain operations, or expand their ideas on a global level. The positive effects of these small grants spread through communities, improving capabilities, expanding resource availability, creating employment opportunities, and generating revenue.
Also, the initiatives funded by the grants result in increased opportunities and support for all those impacted by the recipient’s project. Proposed grant activities must have social benefits for the community beyond financial aspects. A greater social impact increases the chances of grant approval.

Additionally, qualitative impact information such as training for 10 women, each of whom can train 10 more, benefiting 20 families and 50 children, should be provided.
