Dear Friend:

We are thrilled to announce the Fourth Annual Massachusetts Conference for Women, which will be held on Thursday, December 11, 2008 in Boston at the Boston Convention and Exhibition Center. The Conference promises to provide attendees with access to outstanding speakers and tools for their personal and professional development.

We encourage you to join other prominent women’s business groups and non-profits by participating as a supporting organization at this non-partisan, one-day event, which will include a full program of professional workshops. The 2007 Conference drew more than 5,000 attendees and over 100 speakers, with topics including career advancement, leadership and life skills.  Your involvement will help us spread the word about the Conference throughout the state.

As a supporting organization, your group will benefit from:

• Recognition in the Conference invitation to be distributed to more than 500,000 women.
• Further recognition in the Conference program distributed at the conference.
• Acknowledgement on the Conference web site and a cross-promotional link to your organization’s website.

In exchange, we ask that you help us promote the Conference to your membership a minimum of three times, either via email, your internal newsletter or through distribution of information at your organization’s internal event. We also encourage organizations or businesses to consider giving professional development credit for attending the Conference.

In order to have your organization listed as a supporting organization in the Conference printed materials, please fill out our online form.  If you have any questions, please call April Wade at 866-747-2899 or by email .  We look forward to your participation.
