Angel Fund scholarshipThere are moments when a woman in business may be struggling financially, and where involvement in Women Business Owners of North Florida (WBO) could be that needed boost of encouragement and opportunity for success. WBO’s mission is “To inspire women business owners to grow through networking, education and support.” We want all to feel included in our mission. This fund is not a financial hand-out: it’s a hand-up at a time when it could make all the difference. WBO’s newly established Angel Fund is a member-funded anonymous benevolent fund with the goal to encourage and support women in business to become involved in the WBO organization so they can flourish in business. Likewise, if a member needs some financial assistance to help stay involved, they may apply here, as well. Awards from this fund will go to a one-time payment for a WBO dinner meeting, WBO-sponsored special event, or a WBO-sponsored training. Or it would also go towards a partial/full contribution towards cost of an annual WBO membership. Limit of one-time distribution per 24-month calendar year for gatherings and one-time only partial/full payment for annual membership fee for those that qualify for membership following standard protocol. |
