Join New York Women in Business for Good
Helping women of NYC build connections while doing good for the greater community. We focus on helping each other improve our careers and enrich our personal lives, all while doing great work in our community. We come together once every quarter to network, donate, learn about nonprofits and vote on which ones to support together.
“When women get together, powerful things happen. They happen to the group, and also at the individual level. I am joining NYWBG to help my city and my fellow New Yorkers thrive and grow, and also to help myself do the same, through new connections, learning and giving. I feel that generosity is the bedrock and benchmark of true success, and I look forward to meeting other women who are driven not only to succeed, but to share.”
Susan Connor, New York Women in Business for Good
“Sometimes the people who are important to our lives we haven't met yet . It is these types of Social Networking Spaces that allows us to grow. I posted this as a comment but I wanted to share it here . Building Lasting Business Relationships is just as even more important than building business”
Angelita Bacchus, New York Women in Business for Good
“Much of what we do these days is focused on progressing ourselves and the businesses we work for, I appreciate the opportunity to apply a portion of my time to meaningful and impactful work.”

Members make their quarterly contribution.
2. Nomination
If a member has made a contribution, they can then nominate a nonprofit for consideration by adding their nomination on the post on the Grapevine page. The nomination should align with the focus outlined by your group.
3. Selection
After all the nominations are submitted, we’ll randomly select three members' nominations.
4. Meeting
Each quarter we’ll hold a virtual or in-person networking event for one hour. At the quarterly event, the three members’ nominations that were selected will be presented. They will have five minutes to present their nonprofit and then five minutes for Q&A from members. We’ll have time for networking and connection at the beginning and end of the event.
5. Voting
After all the presentations are complete, every member who has made their contribution will be eligible to vote. The nonprofit with the most votes will be rewarded with the funds.
