The Women’s Division of the Alliance Area Chamber of Commerce will be hosting its annual “Purses with a Purpose," open to all, on Wednesday, June 5, 2024. Proceeds from the event will support the Women’s Division’s philanthropic endeavors, which are focused on assisting and meeting the needs of women and children in the greater Alliance community. In the past, the Women’s Division has provided much-needed financial support for community organizations, including the YWCA of Alliance, Alliance Family YMCA, Alliance Area Domestic Violence Shelter, Alliance Community Pantry, Alliance for Children and Families, and Rodman Public Library, among others.
The Women’s Division was founded in 1944 as the first Women’s Division in the State of Ohio and only the seventh in the United States. It is one of only a few Women’s Divisions still active in the nation. Its purpose is to promote the spirit of civic, commercial, cultural, and educational programs among the business and professional women of Alliance; to foster good will; and to cooperate with the Alliance Area Chamber of Commerce in advancing the civic, cultural, educational, and health interests of the City of Alliance.
The Women’s Division would be very grateful if you would consider donating one of numerous swag bag prizes, new purses for a purse raffle, gently-used handbags for a silent auction, or raffle baskets. To donate gift cards, lottery tickets, trinkets, or other small swag bag items, please drop them off to Beth Ryan at Pauli Electric. Purses or handbags for the purse raffle, repurposed bags for the silent auction, or raffle baskets can be dropped off at the Alliance YWCA or Pauli Electric during regular business hours.
