While loan cost calculations are standard, various organizations offer support, counseling, and access to capital for women entrepreneurs. Consider exploring:

  • SBA Office of Women's Business Ownership (OWBO): Provides training, counseling, and access to credit and capital through Women's Business Centers (WBCs) across the country. (sba.gov/women)
  • SBA Loans (7(a), 504, Microloans): These government-backed loans are not exclusive to women but offer favorable terms and are a key funding source. WBCs can help navigate these.
  • Grants for Women: Organizations like WomensNet (Amber Grant) and others offer grants. Search databases like Grants.gov and private foundation sites.
  • Certified Development Companies (CDCs): Non-profit organizations that work with the SBA and private-sector lenders to provide financing to small businesses (including 504 loans).
  • Community Development Financial Institutions (CDFIs): Provide financing and technical assistance to underserved communities and businesses.
  • National Association of Women Business Owners (NAWBO): Offers resources, networking, and advocacy.
  • Association of Women's Business Centers (AWBC): Supports the network of WBCs.
