Sister Inc is happy to be able to provide small start-up grants for new businesses.  These grants can range anywhere from $250 to $3500 depending on how much funds we have available.  The funds come from the sales of products and from memberships.  There is no credit check involved with getting a grant and the grant does not have to be paid back.  There are few rules that must be followed before you are eligible for a grant.

 1.  You must be a member of the Sister Inc. Inner Circle and the membership is $89 per year.

2.  You must present us with a 7 page executive summary.

3.  You must be willing to do a phone interview with our business planning committee.

Once we have reviewed your executive summary you will be called for the interview.  After the interview the committee will then make a vote on the business that will receive the grant and we will make the announcement and the award.  Sometimes when there are funds available we may award more than one grant.  If you want to become a member go to the Join SI  page and sign up.  If you want to be added to our mailing list to know when we have grants available send us your name to: This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it
