A day long celebration of women entrepreneurs
POWERED BY WOMEN
Welcome to the first New York Urban League Small Business SOLUTIONS CENTER Women’s Business Month Event We are thrilled to host you
In the spirit of Donna Summer’s iconic anthem, this event celebrates the relentless drive of women entrepreneurs who work hard daily, juggling business and life demands We recognize that running a business doesn't erase the responsibilities for women of managing day-to-day life at home, such as childcare or caring for aging parents Despite the growing number of women-owned businesses each year, women still face challenges like underfunding, gender bias, and impostor syndrome To honor Women's Business Month, we created a day powered by women for women Whether you are indulging in self-care mini "Me" services, or one of the hands-on experiences like hula hoop workouts, presented by Hula Hoop Fit 366, or crafting their signature fragrance, facilitated by The Wicked Scent Co, the theme of the day is sisterhood She Works Hard for the Money is not just about pampering it also elevates women’s entrepreneurial game We have powerful workshops on financial management presented by TD Bank, trailblazing women in historically male-dominated industries sharing their stories and the impact they are making presented by UPS Hervival founder Lauren Wells will discuss holistic well-being strategies for women The UP Foundation presents Analiza Wolf, who will show us how to shake off Imposter Syndrome The discussions will be rounded out with panels featuring successful women entrepreneurs sharing how they balance motherhood, business, and everything in between.
Celebrating women-owned businesses is at the core of She Works Hard for the Money
Enjoy the day!
