“@FashionNova and I are excited to announce ‘Women on Top’ – a new female empowerment initiative that will give away $1million dollars in grants and scholarships over the course of this month to amazing women entrepreneurs, female students, women-owned businesses, and women-focused charities.
“Each recipient will receive $25,000 or more to invest in their future and we will be highlighting these incredible women and organizations each day.”
Megan revealed the very first recipient of the fund will be the Houston, Texas branch of female empowerment nonprofit YWCA, formerly known as the Young Women’s Christian Association.
“To kick-off the program, it is my honor to announce the first $25,000 recipient – an organization close to my heart – YWCA Houston,” she explained.
“YWCA has a program called Center for Women which helps homeless women and girls advance through life and career by providing much needed housing and resources. Make sure to check back in here or on fashionnova.com/cares to hear about the other inspiring women and organizations doing great things!”
It’s not the first time Megan has used her platform to provide financial aid to worthy causes.
