| BPW is the leading advocate for working women. With a strong, rich tradition on which to build and the combination of BPW leaders and working women nationwide, we will make our vision a reality. |

BPW's Vision | ||
| The
MA/BPW legacy is one of longtime commitment to equality for
all women. From our founding in 1921, we have stood together
as working women to fight for equity in the workplace, the right
to own property in our own names, the right of married women
to work, parity in insurance rates, the right to equal educational
opportunities, and reproductive freedom.
As we embark on the 21st century, we continue our commitment in these areas and have strengthened our resolve to work for domestic violence prevention, social security reform, equal rights, equal pay, and to provide educational opportunities for women through both legislative and individual initiatives. |

BPW Collect Keep us, O God, from pettiness; let us be large in thought, in word, in deed. Let us be done with fault-finding and leave off self-seeking. May we put away all pretense and meet each other face to face without self pity, and without prejudice. May we never be hasty in judgment and always generous. Let us take time for all things; make us grow calm, serene, gentle. Teach us to put into action our better impulses, straight forward and unafraid. Grant that we may realize it is the little things that create differences, that in the big things of life we are at one. And may we strive to touch and to know the great, common human heart of us all, and, O, Lord God, let us forget not to be kind. Mary Stewart | ||
