ORGANIZATIONS | INTERNATIONAL WOMEN'S DAY

Dear Leaders/Members of Women’s Organizations,

Women across the globe are collaborating to celebrate the 100th Anniversary of International Women’s Day and we invite you to participate!

As a participating organization you may have a full page on www.InternationalWomensDay.org that tells about your organization, your mission, and how women can join your group, with a live link to your website! Of course there’s no charge for supporting your organization on the IWD website.

Additionally, when your organization has 20+ attendees per event (10 locations in the U.S.) we’ll give them “preferred seating” so they can sit together and be recognized during the event when your organization’s name is called (they can all cheer like crazy!).

We’d like to tell you more about how WIN can support you and how you can participate on International Women’s Day as we celebrate women in monumental ways in 10 U.S. cities and in 176 countries!

Email Randy@theWINonline.com if you’d like to learn more.
