Washington, DC—Walker’s Legacy is inviting women of color who own small businesses to respond to a survey for a chance to receive one of its COVID-19 Relief Micro Grants. Walker’s Legacy is the largest digital platform for multi-cultural women in business.
Walker’s Legacy, the largest digital platform for multicultural women in business, is making the grants available to women across the U.S. Walker’s Legacy plans to award eight women with $500 for their entrepreneurial efforts.
To apply, applicants must submit a response to Walker’s Legacy COVID-19 Impact Survey funded by the Gates Foundation. Through the survey, Walker’s Legacy will establish quantitative and qualitative data on the effects of COVID-19 to assist multicultural businesswomen, and develop an action plan to support multicultural business women in combating economic setbacks based on the current environment. The goal is to reach multicultural women who have been deeply affected by the impacts of COVID-19 through this survey.
“The global impacts of the pandemic are undeniable, the COVID-19 Relief Micro Grant has the ability to help the women-owned businesses who need support,” said Natalie Madeira Cofield, Founder & CEO of Walker’s Legacy. “As small businesses across the nation work to understand the short and long-term implications on business operations, Walker’s Legacy is determined to provide assistance to and a voice for the fastest growing entrepreneurial segment in the nation: multicultural women in business.”
By submitting a response to this survey, each respondee will be automatically entered for a chance to receive a $500 grant. Survey respondents must be submitted by Dec. 28, 2020 at 11:59PM EST. Additionally, two survey respondents each week will be selected at random for a $50 Amazon gift card and a 1-year free membership to Walker’s Legacy.
