ABOUT THE INCLUSIVE BEAUTY FUND
COVID-19 and resulting shutdowns, L’Oréal USA partnered with the NAACP to provide much needed support in terms of funding and business mentoring to 33 small beauty businesses. Grant recipients used the funds to grow their inventory, refine marketing strategies, and open new retail locations.
While progress has been made, L’Oréal recognizes the importance of continuing to support beauty entrepreneurs who are still facing economic hurdles and headwinds. These challenges limit their potential to scale their businesses and provide essential beauty services to consumers nationwide.
In 2024, L’Oréal USA is expanding the program to include NGO partner Hispanic Federation and grant administrator GlobalGiving, amplifying the reach and impact of the program.
In addition to one-time funding, the company is committed to providing grantees with professional mentorship and business development support with the participation of top executives from its leading beauty brands and its professional beauty products distributor, SalonCentric.
Beauty businesses, extensions artists, braiders, estheticians, barbers, salon owners, suite owners, students and stylists nationwide are invited to apply for the Inclusive Beauty Fund.
