We work for education, not only for our scholarship recipients, but for ourselves, through monthly programs. Speakers have included lawyers, doctors, educators, radio and television personalities, public servants, and others.
The goals of the Chapter are to increase the business efficiency of all members, improve the earning power of all members, promote good relations between employers and employees, assist members in securing employment, advance members in a social, business and educational way, and assist women in the community to better themselves through education.
Our local chapter is for career oriented women who want to further their education as well as willing to share their knowledge with others. All members are asked to actively serve on a committee for some "hands on" experience.
Make new friends, learn new business skills and build a career and support network. We invite you to join our circle of leaders, circle of friends.
