Cocokind Impact Foundation

Enabling female founders to create social impact through business

The Cocokind Impact Foundation provides financial grants to female entrepreneurs in health, wellness, and sustainability industries who are focused on creating social impact through business. The Foundation is providing grants of $2,500 to $10,000 to enable female founders with the financial assistance needed to further their business and social impact.

Applicants must be women, US residents, and 18 years or older. Additionally, applicants must not have raised institutional capital yet. The Foundation’s goal is to help assist companies in the “pre-seed” stage. The female entrepreneurs must be focused on the health, wellness, or sustainability industries, and must also have a goal to create greater social impact through their business.
