In 2025, we partnered with Paris Hilton’s 11:11 Media Impact and GoFundMe.org to provide grants to 50 women owned-small businesses that were impacted by the fire. To show that we are committed to the recovery and rebuild of Los Angeles, we are bringing back the grant program. Winners will receive between $10,000-$20,000 for their business plus 1:1 advising from our experts at the Pasadena Women’s Center.
Applications due April 30th. 👇
