The Canadian Federation of Business and Professional Women (BPW Canada) is a non-sectarian, non-profit, and non-partisan organization that works to improve the economic, political, social and employment conditions of working women in Canada.
We provide a training ground for developing professional, business and leadership potential in a safe and supportive environment, enabling members to build skills, networks and create lasting friendships.
BPW Canada was founded in 1930, the same year as the International Federation of Business and Professional Women (BPW International) and is one of BPW International's Founding Federations. BPW International has Consultative Status at the United Nations Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC) and now includes clubs in more than 100 countries around the world.
Membership in our local club includes membership in the provincial, national and international Federations, thereby encouraging participation at any and all such events.

We are a diverse group of women, some who have been members for over 25 years,
working collectively toward common objectives for improving conditions for women.
Current members are both employed and retired women from Brighton (to the west) through Kingston (to the east), though most are from within the Hastings and Prince Edward county boundaries. Currently, the BPW Canada Vice-President Membership Chair as well as the BPW Ontario President, Secretary and Emblems Chair hail from our local club.
New members are always welcome, from any area
