Women in Leadership’s Give Back Rewards program brings the best of two worlds together: special discounts in local businesses plus the opportunity to give back to your community by helping fund a local non-profit organization. It’s a simple but powerful initiative that allows people to receive a special card with rewards in specific Great Lakes Bay Region businesses after they give a specific donation to Women in Leadership to help achieve the goal of raising up to $10,000 to donate to a local non-profit at the end of the year.

To learn more about what local non-profit has been selected this year, please visit our Philanthropy site.

Participating in this program is a win-win-win situation:

• It’s a win for the community: All income generated from the sale of these cards will go directly to our goal of donating up to $10,000 to a local non-profit by the end of the calendar year.
• It’s a win for local, women-led businesses: All Women in Leadership members with a business that offers rewards to the card owners during the year will not only be giving back to the community—they will also be promoting their business at no extra cost.
• It’s a win for you: By donating to a worthy cause, you will also be helping a local non-profit have more resources to be able to support their community.

Visit our WiL Gives Back Rewards list page to check out the complete list of local businesses that offer special rewards once you have your card.

Participating is easy and simple! Simply donate to the cause (WiL members have a minimum donation of $20, and non-WiL members have a minimum donation of $35) and get your card! After that, you can use the card to claim your rewards before November 30th of the current year.
