President's Message: Happy New Year and Welcome to 2025

31 Dec 2024 4:04 PM | Michele Guarino (Administrator)

Dear Members:

Happy New Year and Welcome to

2025 – a year filled with promise, potential and opportunities to drive forward our mission of Connecting Locally. Uniting Nationally. Igniting Globally.

As we step into this new chapter, I invite you to reframe the word “challenge.”  For some, it may carry a connotation of struggle, but for us, challenges are where we shine.  They represent opportunities to innovate, to push boundaries, and to redefine what is possible.  It is through challenge that we ignite progress, foster resilience and ensure the values of equality and empowerment continue to shape the world. 

This year, we welcome new leadership at the regional and international level—a development that presents us with both opportunities and responsibilities. As a federation, we are part of a global movement that champions the advancement of women, not just within our local communities but across the world. Together, we must engage with and support this leadership while continuing to stand firm on the principles that unite us all.

Let’s leverage this moment to strengthen our collaborations, expand our reach, and amplify our collective voice.

In 2025, let us recommit to our foundational mission: connecting women locally to their communities, uniting as a national organization to address critical issues, and igniting a global movement that creates lasting change. Each of us has a vital role to play, whether as a mentor, an advocate, or a change-maker.

Here’s how we can make the most of this year:

1.      Connect Locally: Look for ways to grow and support your local club. By fostering strong local connections, we create a foundation for collective action.

2.     Unite Nationally: Participate in NFBPWC events and initiatives. Your voice and perspective matter as we tackle national issues impacting women and their communities.

3.     Ignite Globally: Engage with international efforts, from advocacy to cultural exchanges. Our organization is strongest when we actively contribute to the global conversation about women’s empowerment.

I encourage each of you to embrace 2025 with the spirit of Rosie the Riveter—a symbol of resilience, determination, and the belief that "we can do it!" Together, there is no challenge too great, no goal too ambitious.

As we navigate this year, I promise to lead with transparency, determination, and a commitment to fostering an environment where every member feels valued and empowered. Let’s ensure that NFBPWC remains a beacon of hope and progress for women around the globe.

Thank you for your passion, dedication, and unwavering belief in the power of women.  Let’s make 2025 a year to remember!

In solidarity and strength,
Barbara Bozeman
President, NFBPWC
