How to Find Government Grants for Women Owned Small Businesses

The federal government does not award grants for starting a business, but it does award grants to businesses in certain industries. If you are a woman who owns a business in one of these industries, you may qualify for a federal grant. There are a few other ways to find government grants as well.
