Together, We Go Farther
We’re all in this together, aren’t we? This journey of growth and success and, most importantly, saying “I’ve got your back.” Just as we stand on the shoulders of all who’ve paved the way for us, we recognize the shared responsibility we each have today to shine a light for others.
Tapestry of Support
How to be an ally? So many ways, and each of that matter. Inviting, advocating, sponsoring. The common thread is being willing to speak up on behalf of someone when they’re not in the room, and celebrating their success when they are. Find ways to help someone expand their network, to thrive in new ways.

Calling All Men
Behind every successful woman, it’s true, is another successful woman. And sometimes a man is in the wings as well, offering support and access in ways that change the trajectory of a career. So if you’re a fella reading this, reach out today to raise your hand. We’ll put you to work in a way that works best for you.

The Future Begins Today
It’s not what we’re doing, it’s what we’re becoming. Someone very wise made that observation, and we agree. If you’re already involved with Black Women on Boards as an ally, our hope is that you sense our gratitude. If you’re looking for ways to show support, come on in, the water’s warm.
