Forum of Executive Women

What is The Forum Ally?

The Forum of Executive Women looks strategically at how it can interact with outside organizations in furtherance of our mission. A major component of this initiative is The Forum Ally program, which aligns The Forum of Executive Women with one non-profit entity during the course of two years to build a mutually beneficial relationship providing a source of talent and support for The Forum Ally.

“During our two years as The Forum Ally, the women of The Forum of Executive Women brought considerable experience and generosity in sharing their knowledge and time with our organization by participating in many events with our girls, including our Ambassador High School Leadership program, business issues events, and a one-week career camp.  Thank you to The Forum of Executive Women for your partnership these past two years and for what we know will be an ongoing relationship with your members!” — Dena Herrin, Executive Director of Girls Inc.

Clarifi was honored to have been chosen as the first Forum Non-Profit Ally. Forum members offered their experience and expertise at mentoring programs for our clients and were grateful to receive a great deal of exposure to Forum members helping us to further our mission. It was a huge success and our clients are still grateful for the advice and counsel. — Patricia A. Hasson, President & Executive Director of Clarifi
