The Women's Business Council (WBC) partners with a nonprofit organization to help raise awareness about it's mission and how it impacts our community, especially women. The WBC provides the nonprofit a platform for sharing information, making valuable connections, and accessing resources.

Applications for the 2025 and 2026 Adopted Nonprofit are now being accepted through Friday, October 18, 2024. The adopted nonprofit must be a Capital Region Chamber member in good standing and be willing to have a representative regularly attend WBC programs and committee meetings.

Applications will be accepted from organizations that have not been an Adopted Nonprofit Award recipient within the past 10 years. An applicant must be a member in good standing of the Capital Region Chamber.  

Applications must be received no later than 5:00 p.m. on Friday, October 18, 2024.  Please email Jennifer Sims with any questions you may have.
