The Omaha Chapter actively participates in the WLN by providing various opportunities for our members to socialize and network.  “Lunch and Learns” feature speakers on topics that help us to improve our performance at work and our lives at home.  Social events such as bowling, creative pottery, wine and cheese tasting, etc. allow us to enjoy the company of our fellow Chapter Members in and out of the office.

The Omaha Chapter has a love for philanthropy, especially those areas where women and children need assistance. We have participated in a women’s build for Habitat for Humanity, clothing drives specific to women’s work attire, back to school supply drives, and many other events. We strive to make a difference not only in the work place but within the community, by improving the lives of women from many different walks of life.
