S2/Ep.1 Funding Growth for Connecticut’s Women-Owned Businesses
We’re kicking off the season with two recent WBDC Equity Match Grant recipients, Kevnesha Boyd, owner of Quality Counseling in Hamden, and Jona Jeffcoat, owner of Infinity Music Therapy Services in Southington. Listen to hear how these inspiring entrepreneurs plan to use the EMG funds to expand their businesses.
The WBDC Equity Match Grant program was created by the Women’s Business Development Council to assist Connecticut’s women-owned businesses, especially disenfranchised populations and those in distressed communities, providing grants of up to $10,000 to qualified applicants. The current application period is open until February 13, 2022.
WBDC Vice President of Programs and Business Services Brenda Thickett joins the conversation to discuss eligibility and the application process, and to describe the impact this program has had on Connecticut’s women-owned businesses and the state’s economy.
