Kitty Fund Awards $1.25 Million To Moms Who Start Businesses

Kim Folsom’s mother, Catherine “Kitty” Abrams Tadlock Webster, was an entrepreneurial powerhouse who built not one but two highly successful businesses. She later went on to help her daughters Kim and Meghan build three of their own companies: Five Mountains, a real estate development firm; MyFavoriteFlorist.com, which resulted in Meghan’s winning the Small Business Innovation of the Year Award in 2008; and Founder’s First, a business incubator that helped shape future entrepreneurs. Although Kitty passed away in March of 2020 from pancreatic cancer at the young age of 55, she lived a full life with her family and friends by her side. After her death, Kitty left behind a legacy and request to be granted small micro-investments to aspiring female entrepreneurs competing in small employer-based businesses. Thus, the Kitty Fund concept was born.

I am excited that I am a Semi-Finalist for the Kitty Fund GRANT!

I am very grateful!
