Deborah Jackson, founder of Plum Alley, talks about this need:<\/p>\n

Plum Alley Fund was not created to be another niche crowdfunding site. It arose from a problem we saw with women’s access to capital, and was a natural extension of Plum Alley’s mission to support and advance women economically. \u00a0For years I have been watching women as they go about raising money for their ideas and companies. It has not been easy and data shows there is huge disparity in women raising capital versus their male counterpart. Time and time again, I hear women say “if I just had enough money to build that prototype or buy the materials I need, I would go for it.” So many women, including some of our entrepreneurs featured on Plum Alley Commerce, have visions and ideas yet to be translated into creations. At the same time, I know so many women and men (husbands, fathers, boyfriends and brothers) who want to support women in reaching their dreams or doing good for the world.<\/p>\n

For women creators, there are distinct advantages of using Plum Alley Fund over other crowdfunding platforms. Many projects will be created to solve problems and needs that are unique to women. \u00a0\u00a0Crowdfunding for Women Only<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n
