Our Core Values

The chapter provides outstanding opportunities to create valuable connections. You’ll network with dynamic women entrepreneurs and make important business contacts, gaining access to chapter partners offering a wide range of services. You’ll benefit from chapter member support, energy, and experience while increasing business opportunities.

Our monthly programs deliver the inspiration, information, and insights every business owner needs to thrive. In addition to these events, our chapter offers high-impact workshops, procurement opportunities, and exclusive member-only benefits—including scholarships, leadership development programs, and access to valuable business resources. These are made possible through our strategic alliances with organizations such as the U.S. Small Business Administration and the Canisius College Women’s Business Center.

Our chapter amplifies the voices of women entrepreneurs in public policy. Through dedicated advocacy and strategic lobbying, we champion the key issues that impact women-owned businesses—ensuring that your voice is heard where it matters most.

Connect, collaborate, and grow—nationwide. Our national membership directory and annual conferences open the door to meaningful connections with women entrepreneurs across the country. Plus, members gain access to a wide range of exclusive benefits and services offered by our national corporate partners.

Founded in 1974, the National Association of Women Business Owners (NAWBO®) propels women entrepreneurs into economic, social, and political spheres of influence worldwide.
