The fine print worth knowing before you go
- 1
Exact application deadline wasn't stated in the announcement
H&R Block's release says applications opened Sept 1, 2026, but doesn't give a firm closing date — check H&R Block's own Fund Her Future page for the current deadline before assuming you have time.

Only 4 winners nationwide
This is a highly competitive, small-batch grant — worth applying to, but not something to count on as your only plan.
A real, currently open, well-funded grant for women-owned small businesses — just confirm the exact deadline directly since H&R Block's own announcement didn't state one.
