The Mission

Friends and Family Funders for under-resourced women.

Women-owned businesses, including those led by women of color, employ 10 million workers and generate $3.9 trillion in revenue across the U.S.. Yet, we face a number of challenges in accessing capital.

Since 2017 the Yva Jourdan Foundation, the non-profit arm of HerSuiteSpot, has been raising funds to help under-resourced women, including women of color entrepreneurs, access the non-equity capital they need to elevate their businesses to the next level.

Small business grants are useful for financing a particular small business need. Past recipients used their growth grants for computers, equipment, marketing materials, software purchase, website creation and more.
