SheEO is a global initiative focused on building an innovative new model to finance, support, and celebrate women-led Ventures that are creating a better world. The signature initiative #RadicalGenerosity calls upon 1000 Activators in 1000 cities each donating $1000 (+$100 for admin costs) to create a $1B perpetual fund that will support women entrepreneurs for generations to come. Selected women-led ventures are provided with zero-interest loans and access to the women's networks, buying power, and expertise to grow their businesses. Loans are paid back over 5 years and then loaned out again, creating a perpetual fund which will be passed on to our daughters, granddaughters, great-granddaughters, and beyond.
