Charity Tries to
Foster Female Millionaires
The
nonprofit “Make Mine a $Million Business” program awards 20
woman-owned businesses each year with financial support,
educational programs, and advice, reports
BusinessWeek.
The program’s goal is to create one million woman-owned businesses
earning $1 million in revenue by 2010.
The effort is sponsored by Count-Me-In for Women’s Economic
Independence, a New York nonprofit group, and OPEN, the
small-business division of American Express.
“It seemed egregious that so few women were over the
million-dollar mark,” says Lexi Reese, director of advocacy
marketing for OPEN. “If we can get a million women to the
million-dollar revenue mark by 2010, we’re going to be
contributing $700-million in revenue to the economy and four
million new jobs
