Welcome to Funding 101 for Nurse Entrepreneurs—and your next step toward legacy wealth.

💡 Why Funding Is the Game-Changer for Nurse-Owned Businesses

The biggest challenge most nurse entrepreneurs face isn’t lack of ambition or ability—it’s lack of access to capital.

You’re not alone if you’ve ever said:

• “I have the idea, but I don’t have the money to start.”
  
  

• “I’m ready to scale, but I can’t afford the next step.”
  
  

• “I don’t even know where to begin with business funding.”
  
  

The good news? There’s funding available—and you don’t have to do it alone.

💳 Types of Funding Nurse Entrepreneurs Can Access

Let’s break down the options available to nurse entrepreneurs in 2025:

1. 0% Interest Business Credit Lines

This is one of the smartest ways to access capital for new and growing businesses.

Through the Legacy Nurse Network, members can apply for:

• 💰 $10,000 to $150,000 in business credit
  
  

• 🕐 0% interest for 12 to 18 months
  
  

• ✅ No income verification required in many cases
  
  

• 🚀 Use funds for marketing, equipment, business formation, hiring, and more
  
  

This is perfect for nurses launching side businesses, opening practices, or investing in real estate—without taking on high-interest debt.

2. Grants for Nurse-Owned Businesses

There are healthcare-specific and women-owned business grants available at the state and federal level, plus from private organizations.

Examples include:

• Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) grants
  
  

• Local chamber of commerce or small business development center opportunities
  
  

• Healthcare foundations supporting nurse-led initiatives
  
  

While grants can be competitive, they’re worth pursuing—especially for mission-driven projects.

3. SBA Loans and Microloans

Backed by the Small Business Administration, these loans offer favorable terms for small businesses—including those owned by healthcare professionals.

Best for:
✅ Established businesses or startups with a solid plan
✅ Brick-and-mortar locations
✅ Nurses ready to expand

Pro tip: Get help with your business plan and projections to strengthen your application.

4. Alternative Funding Platforms

There are online platforms like Kiva, Fundbox, and others that provide quick access to working capital. These can be great for newer businesses with minimal credit history.

Just make sure to:

• Read the fine print
  
  

• Watch for high fees or interest rates
  
  

• Have a repayment plan in place
  
  

5. Friends, Family & Crowdfunding

If you have a strong personal network, consider launching a crowdfunding campaign through platforms like GoFundMe or Kickstarter for your nurse-led venture.

Tip: Pitch your impact, not just your idea. Let your audience know how your business will make a difference.
