Join our membership drive We are ON TARGET to double our membership by the end of the next term.

How can we do that?  Simple!  Each member pledges to bring in one new member.  In fact, we challenge you to bring in one new member and one new member under the age of 35. 

Be sure to keep track!  We are working on some fabulous incentives and prizes, and every member brought in is another chance to win.

Need some help?  We have outreach resources available, including updated Benefits of Membership pamphlets, How to Start or Grow a Club in 8 Weeks Guidebook, PowerPoint presentations and more.

Please consider joining a national membership committee meeting as a visitor – no commitment required.  We promise a lively discussion with new ideas, strategies, tools, and resources.  Also, please consider inviting your current membership chairs to check us out.  

We (usually) meet on Zoom the First and Third Mondays (one hour), 5 PM Pacific | 8 PM Eastern. 

Double or More by ’24!

Whenever we talk about membership, we often want to target certain demographics to keep the organization fresh and current.  We also think of new and interesting allies for membership in BPW (see the 8 Weeks Guidebook for ideas).  We understand that social media is pretty much the only way to reach them… and… there we stop.

Are you ready to learn this important skill?  NFBPWC is thankful to Suzette Cotto and her team for this exclusive offer to our members:

“Affiliate NFBPWC Clubs will learn the importance of digital marketing to attract new members, retain current members and successfully sustain the organization into the future. By using the tenants of digital marketing, you will learn what a great, intentional online presence and targeted marketing can do to amplify your organization, career, and professional persona.”

The cost is $49 (see details below), and we have confirmed that there are scholarships available from the local to national levels upon request and completion of the course.

We want to challenge every Club and Affiliate to sponsor at least

one member for this course.

Don’t let your club miss out!  If we can all learn these skills together, we can collectively amplify the BPW message and our invitation to join the cause.

Registration information will be posted soon.

Contact Kathy Kelly, VPMembership@NFBPWC.org for more information.
