The NWBCN Foundation recognizes the importance of uplifting all women, cultures, and communities in their entrepreneurial pursuits. We believe that every woman, regardless of her background, deserves equal opportunities and support to pursue her passion for starting, growing, and thriving as an entrepreneur. Entrepreneurship plays a crucial role in enhancing women's economic empowerment as it offers a pathway for women to overcome social and cultural barriers and become self-reliant. By encouraging women to start their own businesses, they can generate income, create job opportunities for themselves and others, contribute to economic growth, and improve their overall well-being.  - Diane Bevan, CEO/Founder
