About National Federation of Business and Professional Women's Clubs

The National Federation of Business and Professional Women's Clubs (NFBPWC) has a history and shared commitment to advocating for and allying with working women for over 100 years. We are a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization focused on positive change in our communities and bringing people together to solve problems.

For over one hundred years, the women of BPW have been dedicated to advancing the cause of our nation’s working women. We take great honor to reflect on the accomplishments our sisters have achieved in the past.

We began in 1919 as the National Federation of Business and Professional Women's Clubs (NFBPWC), on the heels of World War I, with a mission from the government to “coordinate identification of women’s available skills and experience.”

NFBPWC is the first organization created to focus on the issues of working women. Since its formation on July 16, 1919, BPW has consistently provided education, outreach, and opportunity for advocacy on issues that affect working women.
