Power Friday--your weekly NAWBO Greater Philadelphia connection to education and networking!
NAWBO Advocacy - Power Your NAWBO Voice
We invite you to an engaging session with Mikaele Racine, members of the Advocacy Committee, and fellow attendees of our recent trip to Washington, DC in September. Together, we'll delve into the world of advocacy and discuss:
- NAWBO Advocacy 101
- NAWBO Advocacy Tour in Washington DC
- Getting Ready for Election Day!
NAWBO was founded in 1975 to be the first advocacy organization for all women business owners. NAWBO was instrumental in the approval of HR 5050 in 1988 that acknowledged the importance of female owned businesses and removed barriers to funding for women business owners. NAWBO advocates on behalf of women business owners, regardless of political affiliation, encouraging and supporting bipartisan legislation focused on building and strengthening a sustainable business economy.
NAWBO's bipartisan approach guarantees us a seat at the table, regardless of the current political trends, assuring that decision-makers on both sides of the aisle hear the woman owned business voice.
Come and learn about the NAWBO Advocacy Agenda and hear personal stories from our local members who recently attended the NAWBO Advocacy Tours in Washington, DC in September. Both NAWBO Founding President Susan Hager and trailblazing Advocate Shirley Chisholm stressed the need for women to be "at the table.”
Be part of this conversation, secure your seat at the table, and let your voice resonate on Election Day!
