Overview

Mission

International Women's Forum Palm Beach, Inc. ('IWFPB') is a local chapter of a larger organization, the International Women's Forum (the 'Forum'), which has more than 75 chapters worldwide. The members of the Forum and IWFPB demonstrate commitment to the organizations unified mission of advancing women's leadership and championing equality worldwide. Together, we are shaping a future in which leadership has no gender and the next generation is inspired and equipped to transform the world, inclusive of supporting the passage and enforcement of laws and other social measures that protect and promote the rights and interests of women.

What it reported doing in 2024

IWFPB conducts monthly 'Dine Arounds' throughout the year for and by its members, excluding summer, at which IWFPB promotes social welfare through collegiality, friendship and supportive activities among its members who are all top leaders in the region. Each member pays $600 per year in dues, which is the primary source of revenue for IWFPB. Attendance at each event requires a fee from each attendee which IWFPB collects to reimburse the hostess for the cost of hosting said event. Occasionally, the hostess will not request reimbursement and the event proceeds are maintained by IWFPB. One person is contracted annually to administer a few tasks such as regular communications to members, logistics with some of the events, and record keeping.
