Feminist Idea Lab Application

The Feminist Idea Lab is a philanthropic idea hub that invests in girls' and young women's ideas around the world.

The Feminist Idea Lab provides grants to girls and young women to help them ideate, design and bring an idea to life. 5 girls and/or young women will be awarded $1000 USD to start a project, along with 12 months of cohort mentorship that will provide support during the building and launching stages of their projects. Applications are open to girls and young women up to age 25.

What Ideas will get funded?

The Feminist Idea Lab wants to hear all kinds of ideas: social-justice ideas, scientific ideas, business ideas, activism ideas, etc. We want to hear them all!

Why girls and young women?

Less than 2% of venture capital goes to women and girls.
12 million girls under the age of 18 are married every year; that's one girl every three seconds.
Two-thirds of the 773 million people who cannot read in the world are women and girls.

Too many young women and girls around the world are not given a chance to finish their education and are forced to live lives of subordination and servitude. But money is power, and when we give young women and girls resources and support, they can create a better, kinder, more equal world.

Why $1,000?

$1000 can go a long way in many contexts around the world to launch a project.

How will the resources be awarded?

The Feminist Idea Lab will provide the resources to the girls/young women in any way they can receive them. This includes sending wires, utilizing western union, or even bringing cash in person.

Language

Given our limitations, applications and mentorship sessions will be in English.
