Building capital, one action at a time!
Raising and sustaining business capital is a major challenge for many entrepreneurs, especially small business owners and startups. Without adequate support, this struggle can be overwhelming.
At BloomCity Challenge, we provide a platform to raise capital for your business. You submit your business idea or creative work. Once your submission is accepted, you can rally your fans, friends, and family to crowdfund in support of your idea. Minimum donation is One Hundred Naira (N100) - no maximum. At the end of the challenge season, the funds raised for your business will be disbursed directly back to you. You only contribute to our broader empowerment goals.
If you are among the top 10 participants who exceed a threshold, you win one year visibility slot on our website. If you climb further among the top 5, you win a brand new website for your business, hosted by us for one year. All these are in addition to the funds disbursed to you from the total donations for your business.
As a nonprofit initiative, we are committed to your growth, so we may follow up on how your capital is helping your business to thrive.
Through this effort, we actively contribute to Sustainable Development Goal 1: No Poverty
- empowering entrepreneurs and fostering economic resilience.
Hop in and take your business higher!
