In 2010, The Huggies brand introduced the MomInspired grant program. This program is commited to providing inventive moms with the resources and seed capital they need to help transform viable product ideas into successful new businesses, or take their businesses to the next level.
In its first round of submissions, the program received nearly 400 applications and awarded $15,000 each to 12 inspired moms to help fund their business startups based on innovative baby or child care products inspired by motherhood. Grant-worthy examples include:
o Allyson Phillips - TILTY CUP
o Amy Baxter, Buzzy Pain Relief
o Michelle Staley, Busy
The next round of grant submissions is currently open through June 30, 2011 at HuggiesMomInspired.com.
Twelve more inspired moms will be awarded $15,000 each in the Fall of 2011, to turn their original, viable child care product ideas into a reality, or progress their already established small businesses - original, innovative and viable new business and product ideas designed to help make life easier for parents.
Visit HuggiesMomInspired.com for more information on the grant program, eligibility requirements and details on the first round of grant recipients.
Spread the word!
Your creative, mom inspired, idea could become the next big thing! Good luck!
