Other Perks...

Like we said, BPW is all about supporting women right here in our local community—and one of the coolest ways they do that is through grants.

Thanks to events like the Women's Expo, they're able to provide both business and education grants to help women grow and succeed. Last year alone, they gave out over $15,000 to women across Montana. The grants are awarded every October at their Annual Celebration Dinner, where they also recognize some of the incredible women making a difference in our community.

I'll be at the event this year, and I'd love to see you there too!

12 Worst States For Women

"To identify the best and worst states for women, WalletHub compared the 50 states and the District of Columbia across two key dimensions, “Women’s Economic & Social Well-Being” and “Women’s Health Care & Safety.”
We examined those dimensions using 25 relevant metrics, which are listed below with their corresponding weights. Each metric was graded on a 100-point scale, with a score of 100 representing the most favorable conditions for women.
We then determined each state and the District’s weighted average across all metrics to calculate its overall score and used the resulting scores to rank-order the states."
