WSW Community Programming
Community Promise
Each year, ALIST invests time towards an initiative designed to serve the BIPOC entrepreneur community. Becoming an ALIST client or partner directly impacts keeping these efforts going.
In 2024, we helped organize the first Filipino Food Tour in Oregon and we’ll continue to provide WSW Host Grants and Meet Ups for women entrepreneurs
In 2023, we used the collective power of WSW to accelerate new businesses opened by women and offered our first grant program
In 2022, we physically brought the WSW community together in an effort to save Portland restaurants owned by women
In 2021, we interviewed 10 WOC founders and released an inspirational series featuring their 'why' stories for opening a business
In 2020, we built an online community to organize and amplify women-owned businesses in the PNW. We still maintain and moderate @alist_pdx today
Boss Women Take the Stage
Empower her, yes. But don’t forget to invest, promote, hire, listen to, and follow our women leaders.
