Why We Created the $10K Girls Trip Society Grant and How It’s Changing the Game for Women Entrepreneurs

At Girls Trip Society, we’ve always believed that when women are given space to shine, they change the world, and when they’re given resources, they change it even faster. That belief is what inspired the creation of the $10K Girls Trip Society Grant, a funding initiative designed to support women who are building purpose-driven businesses and movements.

✨ The Inspiration Behind the Grant

The idea was born out of countless conversations during Girls Trip Society events. From brunch tables to business panels, women shared the same challenge: having the vision, but not always the capital to bring it to life.

Founder Devin Wilmott-Johnson saw it clearly, brilliant women with world-changing ideas shouldn’t have to wait for permission or struggle alone. The grant became a tangible way to live out the Girls Trip Society mission: to empower, connect, and elevate women everywhere.

“We didn’t just want to host inspiring events, we wanted to fund transformation,” Devin shares. “The $10K Grant is about giving women their takeoff moment.”

How It Works

Each year, women from across the Girls Trip Society community are invited to apply for a $10,000 business grant. Applicants share their story, purpose, and plan for impact. Selected recipients receive not only funding, but also access to mentorship, visibility, and a powerful network of women cheering them on every step of the way.

This isn’t just a financial award, it’s a launchpad. A takeoff point for women ready to scale, pivot, or start anew.

Changing the Game for Women Entrepreneurs

Since its launch, the $10K Girls Trip Society Grant has helped women:

• Launch creative startups rooted in social impact

• Rebrand and relaunch after business setbacks

• Invest in mentorship, marketing, and growth opportunities

• Turn passion projects into sustainable businesses

Beyond the funding, the impact is emotional and cultural, it reminds every woman watching that her dreams are possible, too.

“Receiving the grant wasn’t just about the money,” one recipient shared. “It gave me the confidence to take my business seriously, to finally see myself as a founder.”
