The Mami Collective Grant

It all starts with an idea. Maybe you're ready to grow your business. Maybe you're turning a passion into something bigger. Or maybe you’ve got a project the world needs to see. Whatever it is, The Collective Grant is here-and we want to help fund it.

Fueling Ambition. Backed by Community.

The Collective Grant is a $2,500 award designed to support one ambitious mom who’s actively building something of her own-whether it’s a growing business, a passion project, or a bold idea that uplifts her family and community.

At The Mami Collective, we believe in more than just motherhood. We believe in mom-led innovation, creativity, and resilience. This grant was created to honor that-and to provide real financial support that helps you take your vision further.

We’re proud to offer this opportunity with generous support from Verizon and the Little Village Chamber of Commerce, who are equally committed to empowering women, small business owners, and community builders.
