Fund Her Future

Block Advisors, a service of H&R Block, is offering the Fund Her Future 2025 grant to support women-owned businesses across the United States. With a strong emphasis on empowerment, growth, and sustainable development, the program reflects Block Advisors' commitment to reducing financial barriers and supporting entrepreneurial women. The initiative builds on previous successes, such as the 2024 award to Allégorie, a New York City-based eco-fashion brand that exemplifies innovation and ethical business practices. The 2025 Fund Her Future grant program offers a total of $100,000 in financial support, supplemented by small business services such as tax preparation, bookkeeping, payroll assistance, and business structure analysis. The grand prize will be awarded to one recipient who will receive $50,000 along with the full suite of business services. In addition, five runner-up recipients will each receive $10,000 and the same suite of business services. Eligible applicants must be women-owned businesses, and applications are open until May 30, 2025. Interested entrepreneurs are encouraged to submit details about their businesses via the online application portal. While the website emphasizes inclusivity, it is implicitly targeted at small businesses within the United States. All six selected winners will be notified by August 2025. Additional small business services that winners receive include filing assistance with certified small business tax professionals, professional bookkeeping, automated and compliant payroll support, and analysis of business structures to ensure long-term operational success. These services are administered by Block Advisors and available at participating Block Advisors and H&R Block offices nationwide. The grant program emphasizes its mission through success stories and data-backed reports. For example, according to the 2024 State of Women’s Small Business Report by Block Advisors, 94 percent of women entrepreneurs are optimistic about their businesses despite facing systemic financial barriers. The grant aims to provide a tangible solution to bridge this funding gap while celebrating the progress and innovation of women-led ventures. For more information or to apply, applicants are directed to visit Block Advisors’ website and complete the submission form. Further updates, support resources, and tips are available through their platform, reinforcing their broader mission to empower and equip small businesses led by women.
