Business and Professional Women's Network- established the 9th
day of February 2001
Mission
Statement: We are a few good "professional
women" looking to grow with more professional women in
reaching their full potential, through association and in making
a positive change. This organization, BPWN is a business and
social club for WOMEN.
As with
our Business and Professional Men's Alliance (BPMA), of Cityhappenings.com
it is our desire to offer WOMEN a business and social fellowship.
Purpose: We seek to unite, encourage and empower our black
women; breaking through
the barriers, one sister at a time. Elevating our ladies into
a strong "Sisterhood".
Motto: "Connecting bridges between sisters". To
achieve this, we must organize, develop and create a strong,
diverse network among women, which is the manifestation of
a vision from our leader to unite "black women" in
our community and cultivate an environment
of positive change. This network will educate, teach, guide, inspire, and empower our members via workshops and seminars,
health and employment fairs, community
outreach initiatives, social activities, and networking
opportunities. Women from various walks of life and different stages
in their careers have joined together to make this effort a
great success; therefore the sky is the limit! So, let's reach for
the stars!
Our goals: To
reach out to women, be a positive impact in our community,
maintain a strong, cohesive growing organization via relationships,
team building, networking and other activities
while bonding with each other. BPWN also seeks to inspire
our black youth. Therefore, we hope you will accept this opportunity,
join us in our mission: "upholding
a legacy of excellence and in continuing to support each other in true sisterhood" with the Business and Professional
Women's Network of Cityhappenings.com.
Membership: Each member will pay semi-annual dues of $75 to be associated with our women's network. BPWN
wants to better our families and communities through the power
of sisterhood. We support personal and professional development among our members
by way of talent, skill and abilities.
We appreciate your interest and look forward to you joining us
real soon!
