IFW by Honeycomb Credit (formerly IFundWomen) Universal Funding and Grant Application
IFW Universal Funding and Grant Application
Open continuously
No deadline — apply whenever you are ready.
No single amount: the Universal Funding and Grant Application is a standing database that IFW matches against sponsor-funded grants as corporate partners launch them. Historic sponsored grants have ranged from $2,500 (Honeycomb Hot Streak, Honeycomb Celebration) to $5,000 (Spark Grant, Caress) to $10,000 (Angel City FC Player 22, Visa She's Next) to $25,000 (BOTOX Cosmetic) and a $100,000 Poker Power 'Power Play' grand prize. Individual named grants open and close; amount recorded as null because no standing figure is guaranteed. Note the organisation has rebranded from IFundWomen to 'IFW by Honeycomb Credit'.
