we believe in the female founder
1,800 new women-owned businesses were created today.
Let's make it 1,801.
You’re not just
building a business.
You’re building your legacy.
IT'S OK TO HAVE BIG DREAMS. AFTER ALL:
The League of Leading Ladies is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that fosters the growth and success of female entrepreneurs and female founded businesses. We recognize the untapped potential of women in business and provide resources, mentorship, and funding opportunities to help women succeed and thrive in pursuing their passions. Our hope is that they will not only share their expertise with the world but will also positively impact their families and communities through their successes.

Let's face it: Starting a business and building a legacy are two different journeys.
Get involved in The League to help empower a future of female founders.
One gets you paid.
The other ensures you mattered.
The League of Leading Ladies exists because we've seen firsthand how women's brilliant business ideas often remain just that—ideas—when they lack the capital to bring them to life or an encouraging push of empowerment from others. Our grants don't just fund businesses; they fund dreams that might otherwise never see the light of day. If you've been nurturing that spark of a business plan, holding back only because the financial leap feels too vast, this is your moment. Apply now and join a community of women who refuse to let their legacies remain unwritten simply because traditional funding sources haven't caught up to women's potential.
Since 2007, the number of female founded businesses has grown at five times the national average.
