Through hard work, determination, and unrelenting enthusiasm, Fluvanna Women in Business became a 501c(7) in February 2022 and now has over 100 women and men members that share a common goal - to support local and help one another succeed.

Community Involvement

WIB members proudly serve the Fluvanna and surrounding communities. In addition to our networking opportunities, WIB strives to foster goodwill in our community as individuals and as an organization. We encourage buying local and promoting area businesses to ensure that the benefits of the economic activity stay within the community.

The purpose of this group is to support, connect, discuss, & collaborate with others who work or live in Fluvanna County. We provide Fluvanna business owners/entrepreneurs networking opportunities to build business relationships, learn about the member’s products, services, & skills for relationship building & referral purposes, sponsor & participate in workshops, seminars, & learning opportunities, & participate in community events for promotion that lend credibility to WIB and WIB members. As a 501©7, we are considered a social club so our primary source of income and spending is member based. Dues and direct donations to a 501©7 are not tax deductible. 


  

It’s all about relationships! We fully understand that your focus is on promoting your business so we keep that in mind in all we do! Participation in our group is unique – it comes in many forms. We have two Facebook pages – one private/members only and one public. We host three core networking opportunities: Monthly Coffee Meetups, Monthly Luncheon (often has a speaker), and after hours – Wine, Women & Business event (locations vary). There are many other events hosted by WIB or individual members throughout the year. There is no participation requirement in our group, but we do encourage you to stay involved as much as you can. It takes a village! For more details, please email fluvannawib@gmail.com
