Memorable Moments:

“70% of everybody using peer to peer crowdfunding are women due to their economic disadvantage. 70% of Americans are living paycheck to paycheck, and 80% of them are women. It’s shocking.” 

“We are flocking toward crowdfunding platforms to help in everyday emergencies because a vast majority of women do not have an emergency savings fund.”

“AngeLink has built a platform that is focused on a community where women can depend on a safe and secure place to connect with their friends and loved ones in times of need...but also, the opportunity to change your life when starting a small business.”

“Women are starting businesses 2x faster than men…unleashing the economic power of women is a $3 Trillion unmet opportunity. There’s a huge gap in the market, and the problem is that women need money to start their business.”
