It’s one of the best days of the year at The Mama Ladder (besides our powerful three days at #MamaSpringBreak Retreat!) We’re announcing the first eight finalists for this decade.
HIGH FIVE Grant for Moms™ is a $5,000 international business grant competition. Co-hosted by The Mama Ladder® and Belly Bandit®, this grant provides economic empowerment for mom-owned businesses. This is the fourth semi-annual grant, and we’ve already given $15,000 to promising mom-founded companies.
