Who We Are

Business and Professional Women (BPW) Bowmanville is a not-for-profit organization that encourages women in business, professions and the broader community to join together to improve the status and promote the interests of women. Membership in our club includes membership in the provincial, national and international organizations.

BPW International has held a Category 1 Consultative Status at the United Nations since 1947.
