How you can support female small businesses in the Gresham Area
- Shop from women owned businesses - We have included a list of Women Owned Gresham Area Chamber member businesses above. After you make your purchase go the extra mile and leave an online review on Google, Yelp, or Facebook.
- Help promote their business on your favorite social media - If you enjoyed a local shopping experience tell your friends. Help increase awareness and share about the local entrepreneur that is doing an outstanding job. Remember it's hard to start and run a business. Show the love whenever possible. Include #BuyWomenOwned and #TryLocalFirst to increase your visibility.
- Don't forget the charities - As you can see above, charities are also headed by local Gresham Area women. Running a successful non-profit is only possible with healthy regular donors. Research and find a women owned and operated charity in the Gresham Area that speaks to your passions.
- Send a message of support - A kind letter of support can really make all the different in any entrepreneur's day. Often time business owners feel isolated with the daily demands of their business. Sending a positive note letting them know you acknowledge their hard work and dedication can be impactful.
- Subscribe, follow, and like - Even if you don't have the opportunity right now to purchase anything you may have a need in the future for their product or service. Subscribe to their newsletter. Follow them on your favorite social media platforms. Like their videos and posts. Staying in contact also means you will see any discounts and valuable information.
Celebrating Women In Our Community
Non-profits, of which Gresham has many, are often managed by strong, compassionate women. The Chamber has many non-profit woman Executive Directors and managers. Two examples of our many amazing leaders are Brianna Winningham, Ambleside Meals on Wheels People and Shoshannan Ruwethin, The Salvation Army Gresham Corps.
Educational decisions affect us as parents, taxpayers, and business owners. Kris Howatt, Feather Your Next Quilt Shop and Gresham Barlow School District board member and Diane McKeel and Annette Mattson, Mt. Hood Community College Board of Trustees make impactful educational decisions.
Hard work leading to success is often harder when you are a woman owned minority business. Tortilla & Tienda De Leon's owner Lucy De Leon, welcomed the challenge and is a strong role model in our community.
These two women take their responsibility seriously as do many women leaders. Superintendents Dr. A. Katrise Perera and Dr. Danna Diaz of Gresham Barlow School District and Reynolds School District know the impact that responsibility has on the lives of children.
Successful women in a male dominated industry. Lila Leathers, Leathers Fuel and Karen Johnston, All About Automotive, are just two great examples of women in our Chamber. They are making a difference in their industry and by actively engaging in local efforts for students.
The Gresham area voters elected women leaders to local city and county positions. Examples of those leaders are Metro Councilor Shirley Craddick, Gresham City Councilor Janine Gladfelter, and Multnomah County Commissioner Lori Stegmann.
