Juneteenth marks our country’s second independence day as it commemorates the end of slavery in the U.S. in 1865. Although it has long been celebrated in the African American community, this monumental event remains largely unknown to most Americans. To learn more about the historical legacy of Juneteenth and view resources offered by the National Museum of African American History & Culture, visit https://lnkd.in/evd-92VY The WBEC-East Women of Color Committee encourages you to support Black-Owned businesses this week and any other time of the year! Our offices will be closed on Wednesday, June 19th in observance of Juneteenth. We will reopen tomorrow at 8:00 AM. #WBECeast #womenofcolor #supportblackownedbusiness #WBENCnetwork

LGBTQ+ Pride Month, held during the month of June, celebrates and commemorates the struggle towards progress and equality sparked from the 1969 Stonewall Uprising in Manhattan, a significant tipping point in the modern LGBTQ+ rights movement. The upcoming, virtual WBENC Women & Pride Community Social Hour will provide a safe space to connect with like-minded peers, foster relationships, and combat feelings of isolation while celebrating all LGBTQ+ identities. Bring your favorite women-owned beverage and come prepared to engage in authentic conversations meant to advance and amplify the LBGTQ+ business community. We invite all women business owners and corporate professionals who identify as LGBTQ+ to attend the Women & Pride Social Hour! This session is open to all; LGBTQ+ allies are welcome to attend. Women & Pride is an outreach and development program designed to support and strengthen the community of LGBTQ+ entrepreneurs and corporate professionals within the WBENC network and beyond.

Happy Pride Month! Let's celebrate Pride with the words of Harvey Fierstein: "Never be bullied into silence. Never allow yourself to be made a victim. Accept no one’s definition of your life; define yourself." #pride2024

WBEC-East strives to foster and sustain a diverse, inclusive, and equitable ecosystem by living and working intentionally year-round. We believe diversity promotes innovation, opens doors, and creates partnerships that fuel not only the economy but personal growth as well. WBEC-East is an inclusive and supportive organization, encouraging and welcoming all women (cis, trans, and gender-nonconforming alike) of all backgrounds, races, ethnicities, and creeds to engage with and benefit from our resources and events. While we are a women-focused organization, our services and programs are open to all entrepreneurs and supplier diversity professionals. Visit our website at https://lnkd.in/eYS8XVKj to review some of the answers to questions we commonly get from members of the LGBT+ community. You'll also find links to resources like the HRC glossary of terms and identities for fostering understanding through language. From everyone here at WBEC-East, we wish you a #HappyPrideMonth!

JSL's Cynthia Funaro Towers competed in the Diversity Alliance for Science Pitch Competition yesterday at the East Coast Conference after a year-long Mentorship Program. We can't thank our AbbVie mentors - Blake M. Perry, Esq., Maria Small, Simelia Eugene, MBA, Ginette P., and Joy Monahan - enough for their support and encouragement over the last year! We'd also like to thank Kathy April-Rush, MBA for her vision and leadership. It was an honor to work with all of you and your advice was truly invaluable!

Suppliers are showcasing amazing pitches today at our East Coast Conference! Congrats Mentees on completing annual mentorship program! Winners are announced tomorrow! #DA4S #mentoring #members #da4seast
