Kelowna Women in Business (KWIB) was established in 1993 as a not-for-profit organization, created in order to give a voice to the female entrepreneurs and professionals of Kelowna. Run entirely by a team of dedicated volunteer Directors, we host monthly sessions and enjoyable social events featuring a variety of female speakers touching on business-savvy information and topics affecting women in business today. Our aim is to create a community of women supporting women, while providing as many informational sessions and networking opportunities as possible to all Kelowna based women, and a platform to help promote one another's businesses. Members and the general public are welcome!Our monthly gatherings alternate between evening dinners and noontime luncheons or early breakfasts. We meet once a month from September to June – and break for the gorgeous Okanagan summertime! December is our festive Christmas mingler, and June is our largest and most exciting charity fundraising event of the year. Our total charity donations are in excess of $50,000 in the past eight years alone.We understand the importance of creating impact and giving back to the community; KWIB adopts a local charity affiliation to partner with and support each year – portions of all Membership fees, event tickets, and special fundraising events go directly to our charity of choice, and help to fund our Young Women Under 30 in Education and Female Entrepreneur Start-Up bursary programs!
