Women in Business
International Women’s Day has been celebrated worldwide for nearly a century. March 8 has been set aside each year to celebrate, acknowledge and applaud women around the world for the successes and impacts that they have made and the inroads they continue to make in the economic, political and social world and society.
In March 2014 The Valley Sentinel published a “Women in Business” feature profiling about twenty-five local women who are in business for themselves, or in higher management positions in their career field. Our goal for 2016 is to expand on the theme.
We decided to change our “Women in Business” feature into a bi-weekly series that showcases a business profile in each issue.
If you are a woman in business and would like to have your business showcased, please contact Marie at 250.566.0061 or email vscontributor@gmail.com
