Hudson Valley Women in Business runs on volunteers.

Not a large staff. Not an agency. Women who care about this community and give a few hours to keep it going.

We are looking for more of them.

If you have ever wanted to feel more connected here, volunteering is the fastest way in. You end up working alongside women you would never have met otherwise, and you see the community from the inside instead of from the feed.

You do not need a particular skill set. You need a few hours and a willingness to show up.

Interested? Email [email protected] and tell us a little about yourself.

Somewhere in the Hudson Valley this week, a woman is going to search our member directory.

"Who do I know who does web design?"
"Is there a bookkeeper in this group?"
"Does anyone here photograph products?"

If you are an HVWiB member, that search is a referral waiting to happen. And it only works if your listing is there and current.

Your directory profile carries your photo, what you do, and links back to your business. It is one of the most practical benefits of membership and one of the most underused.

A message for Hudson Valley companies deciding where their community dollars go this year.

Sponsoring Hudson Valley Women in Business puts your brand in front of 3,000+ women entrepreneurs, executives, and professionals across this region. But it does something harder to measure too.

It tells the women who might one day work for you, refer to you, or buy from you exactly what your company stands behind.

People notice who shows up for their community. Especially the ones deciding where to spend, where to work, and who to recommend.

Let's talk about what a partnership could look like.

September in the Hudson Valley means backpacks, bus schedules, and a whole lot of women quietly rebuilding their work week around someone else's calendar.

That is exactly who Hudson Valley Women in Business was built for.

Not the woman with unlimited hours and a corner office. The one running a business between school pickup and dinner. The one who spends her lunch break in a virtual workshop. The one building something real in the margins of a very full life.

We are a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, and our programming is designed around how women actually work. Virtual options. Morning coffees. Sessions you can catch later.

You don't have to grow alone, no matter what your schedule looks like.

What actually happens at an HVWiB coffee?

Someone gets a referral. Someone finds her next collaborator. Someone says a worry out loud and hears ""me too"" for the first time in months. And someone just enjoys an hour that isn't on her to-do list.

All of that, over one cup of coffee. Join the nearest meetup near you at hvwib.org/events

September is coming, and with it a full calendar of ways to grow your network.

If you've been watching HVWiB from the sidelines, this is your sign. Join our mailing list, come to a coffee, or start with a free membership. One conversation at the right event can change the trajectory of your business.

When women thrive, communities do too.

Every workshop we host, every retreat we plan, and every connection made at an HVWiB event ripples out into the Hudson Valley: stronger businesses, local jobs, and women lifting each other as they climb.

Want to be part of that impact? Join, sponsor, or donate at hvwib.org

Kingston. Poughkeepsie. Newburgh. Beacon. And plenty of towns in between.

HVWiB coffee meetups happen all over the Hudson Valley, because your community shouldn't require an hour in the car. Wherever you're building your business, there are women nearby doing the same thing.

HVWiB started in December 2014 as a simple idea from founder Lauree Ostrofsky: women in business shouldn't have to figure it out alone.

Today we're a 501(c)(3) nonprofit and a community of 3,000+ women entrepreneurs, executives, and professionals across the Hudson Valley. Different industries, different stages, same belief: connection creates momentum.

Here's to the next chapter. Join us at hvwib.org

Working for yourself can mean a lot of days where the only meeting is with your inbox.

That's exactly why HVWiB hosts coffee meetups throughout the Hudson Valley. An hour with women who get it can reset your whole week, and it costs you nothing but the coffee.

There's one near you. Come pull up a chair at hvwib.org/events
