    "description": "<p>The business operates online as <a href="http://diplomaframe.com/">diplomaframe.com</a> and is a 12-time Inc. 5000 Honoree. Voves has been involved in custom frame making for more than 30 years and has made history by becoming the first female Chair of the Board of Trustees for Union Savings Bank in its 124-year history.</p>n<p>Voves emphasizes the importance of community connections and strong relationships with local banks. She advocates building these relationships even before the need for funding arises.</p>n<p>The strategy of local networking and early relationship-building can prove essential when the time comes to seek out funding. Voves also suggests getting your woman-owned business certified through organizations like the Women&#8217;s Business Enterprise National Council (WBENC), which can provide easier access to federal grants and private company-funded grants.</p>n",
