Dear BGV Supporters and Participants,

I am pleased and honored to present you with Bad Girl Ventureʼs Annual Report for the fiscal year 2010/2011. BGV is very proud of what our team has accomplished in the past year with your support. BGV has received more than 300 applications from local entrepreneurs, provided instruction and direction to 150 plus businesses, and guided 28 exceptional finalists through our curriculum. We have facilitated $650,000 in loans to 24 women-owned businesses, creating over 100 new jobs in the Greater Cincinnati area.

Our Bad Girls from classes one, two and three come from a variety of industries and represent a diverse range of entrepreneurial potential. We thank the donors, mentors, and faculty who have committed to investing in these leaders. I continue to be humbled by the hard work of our team, the dedication of our mentors and faculty, the generosity of our donors and partners, and the genuine support of our community.

Thank you for your ongoing support; we salute you. Be BOLD. Join US!

Candace Klein, Founder and CEO
