Women On the Rise:
As of 2016, there were an estimated 11.3 million women-owned businesses in the United States, employing nearly 9 million people and generating more than $1.6 trillion in revenue. Since 2007, the numbers of women-owned businesses have increased by 18%, while most U.S. firms saw an overall decline of 1%. This is why LiftFund works to empower our minority and women-owned businesses, and why the Women’s Business Center aims to lift each and every one of our clients.
LiftFund Client Story: The Calling Card, LLC.
Freda Paz has managed The Calling Card LLC—a New Orleans-based graphic and print business—since 2009, but she was frustrated by stagnant client and sales numbers. Freda developed a focused marketing plan and worked with LiftFund to secure a $25,000 loan, which allowed her to maintain her bu
siness while opening a new storefront to showcase her designs and connect with new clients and businesses. 
“I was very impressed and pleased with the easiness of working with LiftFund,” Freda said. “I [appreciated] the accessibility of the process and personnel.”
