Go BOLD Grant Initiative By Pink Print For Women Entrepreneurs

It’s not a pitch deck, a long-form application, or a financial deep dive – it’s a moment of clarity on social that a small donor will reward with $2,500. That makes this ideal if you want low-bureaucracy cash that rewards brand clarity and audience-forward storytelling. Read on to confirm whether you actually qualify and what will silently disqualify you before you record your Reel.

What This Grant Is Really Selecting For?

A normal microgrant selects for paperwork strength.
This one appears to select for “proof of difference” under constraints: short format, social platform mechanics, and a very specific style of positioning.

That matters because you can be a strong operator and still be a weak fit.
Not because your business is bad, but because the entry format punishes vague messaging and rewards founders who can land a clear point quickly.

The Name Confusion: “Go BOLD Grant Initiative” vs “Go Pink Grant”

You will see this opportunity described in multiple ways online.
Pink Print’s official page is titled “Go Pink Grant Application.”
Third-party directories may label it “Go BOLD Grant Initiative” and attach a fuller eligibility checklist.

That mismatch is not cosmetic. It changes what people assume they are applying to.
When the title differs, the safest move is to anchor on the official Pink Print URL for what is definitely true, then verify every extra rule before you treat it as a hard requirement.

Silent Disqualifiers

For video-entry microgrants, the silent disqualifiers are rarely “your business isn’t good enough.”
They’re usually: wrong platform, wrong length, missing tag, wrong hashtag, posted too late, or not posted in the expected format.

The tricky part here is that Pink Print’s official Go Pink Grant page does not publish those mechanics in plain text.
So you have to be extra careful about relying on a third-party list, even if it looks precise.

FAQ

Q: What is the official deadline?
A: March 11, 2026 (published on Pink Print’s Go Pink Grant timeline).

Q: Where is the official application page?
A: There’s no official application form, you just need to upload the video with the mentions and hashtags.

Q: Is this more like a grant or a contest?
A: Based on how it’s commonly described (short social video entry), it behaves like a competition. The official Pink Print page confirms timeline, not the mechanism.

Q: If I hate social media, is this still worth it?
A: Maybe not.

Q: Are there microgrants that do not require a public video?
A: Yes. Start with Hustlers MicroGrant and Fund Her Future.

Q: Is “Get Grant Ready Summit” the same as Pink Print’s older seminar pages?
A: Pink Print has multiple summit and ticket pages across time. Use the current ticket page and the Go Pink Grant page timeline as your anchors.

Q: Is there a required hashtag?
A: Third-party listings mention #gopinkgrant, but Pink Print’s official Go Pink Grant page does not publish hashtag rules in text. Verify before posting.

Q: Is the Get Grant Ready Summit required to apply?
A: Yes. The official page confirms the winner is announced during Day 5 of the summit.

Q: What summit date is confirmed?
A: March 13, 2026 is confirmed as Day 5 (winner reveal day). The full date range is not published on the Go Pink Grant timeline.

Q: Are tickets really $5?
A: Pink Print’s ticket page lists a General Admission option at $5.

Eligibility

Normally I’d give you a clean eligibility checklist right here.
With this grant, Pink Print only publishes the timeline in text on the official application page, so a strict checklist would be guesswork.
We’re not doing that.

Instead, treat eligibility as two layers.
Layer one is what is confirmed: you must apply inside the open and close window.
Layer two is what you must verify: who can apply (gender, region, entity type) and what counts as a valid entry submission.

If you want a practical gut check, focus on the risk surface:
the more your eligibility depends on a detail like “summit attendee” or a specific hashtag, the more you need a primary-source rule line before you spend time creating the entry.

Eligibility Tool

Grantaura’s eligibility tool turns grant rules into simple yes or no checks so you can stop rereading the same requirements.
For opportunities like the Go BOLD Grant Initiative where technical rules may matter, it helps you spot missing pieces fast and document what you still need to verify from the official source.

How This Compares To Other Women-Focused Microgrants

Most women entrepreneur microgrants you’ll see are form-first, with written responses and attachments.
This opportunity is unusual because the entry is commonly described as a short social video, which shifts the competition toward messaging clarity and execution details.

If you want alternatives with more traditional application mechanics, these opportunities are often closer matches for founders who prefer written narratives over public video entries:
HerRise MicroGrant for Women of Color Entrepreneurs,
This Woman Knows,
Galaxy Monthly Grant,
She’s Connected by AT&T,
and pitch-style options like the
Black Girl Ventures Pitch Program.

More Grants

If the Go BOLD Grant Initiative is close but not perfect, don’t stop at one microgrant.
The fastest way to stay funded is to stack opportunities that match your stage, your business type, and your comfort with the application format, whether that’s short-form entries or traditional written applications.

You can also browse more free opportunities on Grantaura when you want options filtered by eligibility, region, and founder profile, without relying on scattered directory pages.
That matters most when an opportunity’s official page publishes only partial requirements.

Terms

• Go BOLD Grant Initiative: A commonly used listing label for this opportunity in third-party directories. Pink Print’s official page presents it as the Go Pink Grant, so use the official URL to verify what is definitely required. The name matters because it affects what rules people assume apply.
• Go Pink Grant: The official title presented on Pink Print Firm’s application page. The timeline (open, close, winner reveal) is published there in text. Other requirements may be published elsewhere by Pink Print, so confirm before you create your entry.
• Microgrant: A small-dollar funding award designed to move quickly. For this opportunity, the award amount is not published in text on the official page, even though directories often describe it as $2,500. Always confirm the amount directly.
• Application window: The period when submissions are accepted. Pink Print’s official Go Pink Grant timeline lists an open date and a close date. Outside that window, even a strong entry is irrelevant.
• Winner reveal: The scheduled public announcement of the recipient. Pink Print states the winner is revealed March 13, 2026 during Day 5 of the Get Grant Ready Summit. This matters if you care about announcement timing and visibility.
• Get Grant Ready Summit: Pink Print’s summit or seminar brand tied to grant education. The Go Pink Grant page links the winner announcement to Day 5 of this summit. Ticket pages may be separate from the grant page, so confirm details on the current ticket page.
• General Admission ticket: The entry-level summit ticket. Pink Print’s ticket page lists a General Admission option priced at $5. If eligibility is tied to attendance, your proof of attendance could matter, but that rule is not published on the Go Pink Grant page text.
• Eligibility: The pass or fail criteria that decides whether your entry can be considered. For this grant, Pink Print’s official page does not publish a full eligibility list in text, which increases the importance of verifying rules directly. Never assume directories are authoritative.
• US-based: A geographic eligibility condition often attached to microgrants. It is listed in some third-party summaries for this opportunity. It is not confirmed in the Pink Print Go Pink Grant page text.
• Canada-based: Another geographic eligibility condition commonly reported in directories for Pink Print-related grants. For this specific Go Pink Grant listing, it is UNKNOWN on the official Go Pink Grant page text. Verify before you apply.
• Women entrepreneurs: A target-audience label shown in third-party listings for the Go BOLD Grant Initiative. Pink Print’s Go Pink Grant page does not state a women-only restriction in text. Treat this criterion as UNKNOWN until confirmed by Pink Print.
• Nonprofit: A legal entity type that may or may not be eligible. Some third-party summaries say nonprofits are allowed for this opportunity. The Pink Print Go Pink Grant page does not confirm nonprofit eligibility in plain text.
• Active business: A basic readiness condition used in many entrepreneur grants. Third-party listings describe an “active business or nonprofit” requirement for this opportunity. Pink Print’s official Go Pink Grant page does not publish this in text.
• Instagram Reel: A short-form video format often used for promotional entries. Directories commonly describe the entry as a 30 to 60 second Reel with tagging and hashtag requirements. Those mechanics are not published in text on the Pink Print Go Pink Grant page.
• TikTok video: Another short-form video platform often accepted for social-entry competitions. Third-party listings mention TikTok as an accepted format. Confirm the accepted platform and format directly before you post.
• Tagging requirement: A rule that requires you to tag an account (often @pinkprintfirm) so the donor can find your entry. These rules are high-risk because missing the tag can invalidate the entry. Pink Print’s Go Pink Grant page does not list tagging rules in text.
• Hashtag requirement: A rule that requires a specific hashtag to index entries. Third-party listings frequently mention #gopinkgrant, while promotional copy online sometimes references other hashtags. Pink Print’s official Go Pink Grant page does not publish hashtag rules in text, so verification is essential.
• Third-party directory listing: A page on another site that summarizes the grant. These listings can be useful for discovery, but they are not the source of truth. For Go BOLD Grant Initiative details, always reconcile against Pink Print’s official page.
• Source of truth: The official donor or administering page where rules are published. For this opportunity, the Pink Print Go Pink Grant page is the strongest anchor we have for dates. If other rules are only on social posts or forms, that official channel becomes the source of truth for those mechanics.
• Technical disqualification: Rejection caused by failing a mechanical rule, not by business quality. Video-entry grants are especially vulnerable to this, because the “application” can be a post that must match strict requirements. This is the main time-waste risk on the Go BOLD Grant Initiative.
