Women Business Owners (WBO) is a national 501c3 non-profit organization, founded in February 2004 by three women with a need for practical business information and connections. Today, our members and sponsors operate WBO through their volunteer hours and generous donations. Our home office is located in Houston, Texas. Our services are available for women throughout the entire world.

WBO provides education and support for women business owners throughout the world with online educational resources, classes, workshops, mentoring, seminars, networking and referrals. By creating an online educational and networking forum, our members are able to connect with others and enrich themselves when it is practical for them.

The WBO Grant Fund program is to help raise funds for grants to be awarded to women in business. These grants will help women with educational costs to approved schools of higher learning. This can include business schools, trade schools, colleges or universities (public or private), or degree related programs.

Each year we will be sponsoring fundraisers to help women from all walks of life reach their business goals. It can be done in ways of selling products or services and direct donations, which are tax deductible.

Our current fundraiser for the period of November 25 through December 8 is with Kathy Gullstrand, an independent representative of Home and Garden Party featuring a variety of Pottery, Framed Art, Gifts, Food, Gift Cards and More. Her website can be accessed at http://www.hgpchic.com, to ensure proper credit towards WBO Grant Fund, please contact her directly at hgpchic@yahoo.com or by phone at (732) 335-8733. A 30% donation of every item sold goes to the WBO Grant Fund.

We are currently seeking businesses owners or individuals that can help us achieve this goal and help other women in business.

If your company would like to participate in WBO Grant Fund program, please contact Women Business Owners by visit their website at www.womenbizowners.org, by email info@womenbizowners.org, or by phone 713-516-1524.

Thank you for your support!
