Welcome to the Lakeland Downtown Chapter of ABWA – a professional league of business women from diverse backgrounds and occupations, desiring to advance their careers through networking, professional development, leadership and national recognition.

It's Fall ... but we're thinking Christmas!
Several businesses from our chapter have stepped forward and are participating in a Fall Fundraiser to raise money for our ABWA Downtown chapter.  Now through September 10, each participating business has agreed to give a large share of their profit from the sale of their products back to ABWA. That’s right, a portion of each sale will go back to our local chapter!   Please contact and support each of the following businesses regarding their product specials!  Please make checks payable to each individual.  Click here to download the list of participating businesses.
