Good Deal for Moms

I'm on the run, traveling again. But I just learned about Whirlpool's "Mother of Invention" grant program. Here's the scoop from Whirlpool's PR.

It is the fourth annual Mother of Invention Grant program and this year, Whirlpool added a green category for moms to recognize moms who develop an enivronmentally-friendly product/service or use natural/recycled materials to create their invention.

Five moms will win in all - at least two with green ideas. The grand prize mom will receive a $20,000 grant, two first place winners will get $7,000 and two second place winnes will receive $5,000. All moms will come to Whirlpool to take part in a business boot camp to learn about starting a business.

The program kicked off Sunday and runs through July 31. Moms can enter at www.whirlpool.com/moms.
