We aim to promote full participation, equity, and economic self-sufficiency for working women in Kansas

Debbie Grosdidier
Kansas BPW - Federation President
​2025-2026

​My theme for the year is Be -Leaf In Yourself!    I "Be-Leaf" we have a great group of officers and committee chairs this year and look forward to a successful year.

I am challenging each member to invite at least one new person to your local club meetings.  This can be done by increasing community visibility, provide opportunities with club meeting topics, and encourage leaders/members to "Be-Leaf" in themselves.
