JOIN WBOA
You wake up one day and are equally exhausted and exhilarated. Owning a business is one gigantic undertaking supported by hundreds of minute details.
Where do you turn, who do you talk to? Your friends say you work too hard, your family sends you job postings with benefits; most cannot even relate to the leap you have made…
$100 WBOA Membership: Welcome to the WBOA, we speak your language! Our 2023 WBOA Membership runs January - December and entitles you to these benefits

Cheryl Reed Memorial Loan Fund
The Cheryl Reed Memorial Loan Fund is a legacy program of the WBOA offering quick turn-around funding for our members to enable them to respond to business growth opportunities and the urgent needs of business. CRML was established in 1991 in memory of Cheryl Reed, owner of Cheryl Reed Travel in East Longmeadow. Cheryl was a founding member of WBOA but most importantly a business owner who knew that access to capital could make all the difference between being able to take advantage of a business opportunity and having to decline.
To date, the WBOA has provided thousands of dollars of low interest loans to scores of women who have used the funds for uses as varied as:
-
attending a professional development conference
-
upgrading technology
-
onboarding a new employee
-
Big E booth signage and promotion
-
holiday inventory
The application process is quick, easy and confidential. This program is offered exclusively to WBOA members.
Always current, always relevant, always elevating women in business. Whether you are growing a business or growing a career, as the WBOA tagline says ‘Don’t Grow It Alone’®
