Bloomington Women in Leadership: Engage

On Friday, June 13th, the Bloomington Women in Leadership group came together for our 2025 Engage service project  supporting the incredible work being done at Pathways! Participants helped staff at Pathways complete much-needed deep-cleaning and organization projects, outdoor painting projects, outdoor landscaping and maintenance projects, and sound panel installation projects.

​Pathways empowers families to significantly improve their economic circumstances and break the cycle of poverty by providing a powerful combination of direct material assistance for the household, affordable & high-quality early learning for children ages 1-5 years old, and individualized economic mobility services that help caregivers increase wage-earning potential, facilitate emergency savings, and encourage investing in the future. Pathways’ Compass Early Learning Center currently supports 84 children and their families. They’ve welcomed us to help with meaningful hands-on projects around their campus—and they’ve also shared a wish list of much-needed supplies we can collect.

Bloomington Women in Leadership ("BWIL") has four core pillars including Inspire, Engage, Elevate, and Empower. BWIL "Engage" events will  partner with local non-profit organizations and give back to the community. These programs should focus on participants spending quality time engaging with and enhancing the community and learning about the partner organization who strives to improve the Bloomington community.
​
​Bloomington Women in Leadership (BWIL), an affinity group of The Greater Bloomington Chamber of Commerce, is a professional women's group that empowers, inspires, elevates, and engages through mentorships, professional development, and community. BWIL events are open to Chamber and community members. BWIL supports professional women and their allies to build a meaningful network of women through intentional peer and mentoring relationships.
