Are you ready to be an Entrepreneur?


There's no doubt that we are in a time that many of us might have thought would never happen. For many reasons, most of them beyond our immediate control, we find ourselves in the position to consistently re-evaluate who we are and how we will sustain a living for our families. Trust me, at the YWCA Center for Women's Entrepreneurship, we know exactly what you are facing. Strategically positioned in the Department of Economic Advancement, The Center is a place where your passion can turn into a paycheck if you are willing to do the hardwork it will take to start and maintain a thriving business. And more importantly, we are here to help. Maybe it has always been your dream to have a business of your own but you have no idea where to start and how to make that dream a reality.

We invite you to join us for an upcoming Business Assessment and Basics Workshop to see if you've got what it takes for entrepreneurship. Although very rewarding, to be a successful wntrepreneur it will not all be warm and fuzzy. Let us help you decide if the time is now and you are ready to enter the land where the sky is truly the limit on the success you can enjoy.
