The Breakthrough Grant Returns For Volume IV, And Applications Are Open Now
Her Agenda‘s Breakthrough Grant is back for its fourth round, and one woman entrepreneur will walk away with $5,000 to put toward budding her business. Applications are open now through January 19, 2027, and there’s no better time than now to put your business and your ambition on paper.
What The Winner Receives
The grant awards $5,000 to a woman entrepreneur actively growing her business, with no restrictions on how the funds are used. Past winners have put the money toward everything from production costs to building out their brand, and this round is no different: the goal is simply to give a founder the resources to move closer to her next milestone.
Applications are open at grant.heragenda.com.
Her Agenda Is Committed To Supporting Ambitious Women
This is the fourth time Her Agenda has put resources directly into the hands of a woman entrepreneur, and the previous winners show exactly what that support can do.
The inaugural Breakthrough Grant went to Ugenia Stokes, founder of FWIN Productions, a BIPOC, woman-and LGBTQIA+-led production company working across scripted narrative, documentary, and animation. Stokes described a breakthrough as “the moment when all the pieces you have been building come together,” and her selection set the tone for what the grant was designed to support.
Volume II went to Emily Mack of Offline Wine, a sister-founded, research-driven wine brand built by millennial, and women for millennial women. Mack has used her platform to build community around a product shaped by the women actually drinking it, rather than letting the industry dictate the conversation.
The Impact Of The Grant
Access to capital remains one of the biggest barriers women entrepreneurs face, and dedicated funding opportunities are still far fewer than they should be. The Breakthrough Grant is Her Agenda’s way of closing even a small part of that gap, one founder at a time.
If you’ve been meaning to apply for a grant but haven’t found the right starting point, this is a strong one. Applications are open now at grant.heragenda.com, with a deadline of January 19, 2027.
