Notes from the nonprofit
Lift Women's Foundation is excited about our new brand and focus. We are here to create access to capital to women in under-resourced communities. Economic status should not be a barrier to being able to start a business. We are here to take a step towards financial equity for women that would not otherwise qualify for a conventional loan.
