Connection, Collaboration, Support
We had an amazing 2020 virtual Celebration of Women!
COVID-19 has challenged all of us as a community. Normally we would honor 3 women of the Eugene/Springfield area and select a winner from among them; however, the events of 2020 have encouraged us to take a different approach.
We honored 29 women through a nomination process, in this exciting Celebration of Women. Congratulations to these leaders in our community!

Overview of ProgramThe Women Business Leaders Program aims to educate and excite both existing and aspiring women leaders while offering support on a variety of issues that women might face any given day. We host a series of luncheons and wine nights- all dedicated to connection, collaboration, and support. Our luncheons are an opportunity to learn about the work of some incredible individuals who give keynote speeches on relevant community issues. Our wine nights are dedicated to relaxation and connection, something we think we all need more of!
