With applications now open, the program offers fast, judgment-free aid to help recipients overcome financial hardship, burnout, and isolation.
Every day, young women in sectors like trades, tech, mechanics, construction, and engineering demonstrate capability and determination. Yet many face significant obstacles that threaten to derail their careers or education. Fuel Her Fire aims to change that by providing tangible support that helps them persevere.
How the Fuel Her Fire Initiative Works
The program is built on simplicity and compassion:
Applications Open: Young women aged 18–29 can apply for emergency financial support now through August 1 via a short, compassionate online form. No complicated paperwork is required; the focus is on understanding their story and needs.
Review Process: The GGDF team carefully reviews each application with urgency, identifying the most pressing needs and selecting recipients.
Support Begins: Starting September 1, funds ranging from $100 to $500 per month for three to twelve months will be distributed directly to help cover essential costs.
Who Can Apply
Fuel Her Fire supports:
Young women aged 18 to 29
Those actively studying or working in a male-dominated field (e.g., trades, tech, mechanics, construction, engineering)
Individuals facing financial hardship that threatens their education or job
Applicants who currently live, work, or study within the United States (international expansion planned for December 2025)
Micro-grants can be used for a variety of everyday costs that can become overwhelming, including rent, utilities, transportation, tools, certification fees, groceries, therapy, or childcare.
"If it's keeping you from staying in school or doing your job, we want to help," the initiative states.
