Business and Professional Women Paso del Norte
The Business and Professional Women (BPW) Paso del Norte is a non-profit organization with the El Paso, Texas chapter established in 1996. The organization works towards the empowerment of women through education, training and mentorships.
The El Paso de Norte chapter is part of the Business and Professional Women International Organization in existence since 1930 with Chapters in over 100 countries
In 2007, the BPW initiated a scholarship program for women who wish to pursue a postsecondary education or vocational training but do not meet the requirements for federal financial assistance and would otherwise not be able to afford tuition.
The BPW also provides mentorship and supports women entrepreneurs in areas of promotion, leadership and guidance.
Several events are held each year to raise funds for our scholarships and other programs that are designed to empower women. An annual scholarship award ceremony.is held at the end of each year where the scholarships are awarded to students who meet the program’s criteria.
The International Collect
We ask that we meet together not allowing beliefs, religion, nationality, ethnicity or language come between us.
That these meetings enable us to move forward and advance the status of women throughout the world.
That the value of women be recognized in our families, our communities, our workplaces, our country and the world.
That we use our good ideas, our knowledge and our experience to promote the worth of women.
That we combine our strengths to move forward in peace in serenity and in love.
That woman of all generations will do their part to achieve harmony and equality among all human beings.
