Navigating Gender Bias and Racial Inequity in Entrepreneurship

One of the most glaring manifestations of this double bind is the disparity in funding. According to New Jersey Business Magazine, women of color receive less than 0.2% of venture capital funding, highlighting systemic exclusion. Investors often subject them to heightened scrutiny, questioning their competence and vision while favoring their male counterparts. Studies show that identical business plans are rated lower when attributed to women, particularly women of color unless framed as "innovative." This forces women to overcompensate by emphasizing novelty, a strategy that can be effective but ultimately perpetuates inequity. As reported by the Columbus Dispatch, black women, despite founding 42% of new women-owned businesses, face loan denial rates three times higher than those of white-owned firms.

Nonprofit Sustainability Through Revenue Diversification

Nonprofits often time face ongoing challenges with funding, In 2023 a report from NonProfit PRO stated, that 76% of nonprofits reported significant funding challenges due to economic downturns and the erosion of donor bases. The problem is exacerbated by the nonprofit sector’s heavy reliance on large donors—contributions from major donors, who account for nearly 75% of total dollars donated, declined by 10% in the first quarter of 2023 (Association of Fundraising Professionals).
