There are also many great grants available for women and emerging leaders. With that being said, we’ve picked out some exciting opportunities to pique your interest in April. Check out these funding rounds below.
Boosting Female Founders Initiative
The Boosting Female Founders Initiative provides female founders and entrepreneurs with funding to help them launch their businesses into domestic and global markets. Innovative startups are a necessity in our economy, as they bring new products and services into the market, driving local opportunities and job creation.
This grant will help these female leaders overcome the disadvantages they may face in accessing finance and support, to further their business and grow their startups. Funding is available in two tiers based on total eligible project expenditure.

The Volunteer Grant Activity is part of the Families and Communities, which aim to strengthen relationships, support families, improve the wellbeing of children and strengthen community functions. This is a national funding opportunity supported by the Australian Government.
