Join us next week for 4word’s Giving Week
4word Giving Week begins next week! Please mark your calendar for Sept 14-18 to help support women in the workplace. 100% of donations go directly to provide one on one mentoring through our Mentor Programs, authentic community through our Community Groups, and inspiration through our Digital Content. Even a small donation can make a big impact. If your company matches employee donations, be sure to let them know. We also accept gifts of stock.
