About Valley Women’s Association

Mission Statement

The Valley Women’s Association is dedicated to bringing together women from all walks of life so that they may share and support each other’s goals and interests, exchange ideas, and encourage both learning from their peers and set a good example for others. We provide a platform to members for business networking and informative discussions on promoting a positive self-image, health, safety, well-being and successful business practices.

 

History

In 1980 a group of like-minded women from the Fraser Valley created the Valley Women’s Network. The group was designed to meet the special needs of women when it came to networking and socializing. Since that time, the chapters have grown and changed as needed within the areas they existed. In 2017, we changed our name to Valley Women’s Association and became a registered society.  We are currently comprised of 5 chapters: Surrey Delta, Tri-Cities, Langley, White Rock South Surrey, and Evening Chapter. Our goal remains the same; to empower, educate, and bring together women in an environment that is safe and respectful.

Core Committee

Each Chapter of Valley Women’s Association is run by a Core Committee that is elected annually in May. If you wish to be a member of the Core, contact your Chapter Core. Members can become involved by serving on the Core or any of several committees. It is possible to serve on the Core, without being elected as vacancies occur and volunteers are greatly appreciated.

A member wishing to assist or put a motion forward may contact any member of the Core Committee. Every member is encouraged to be active in passing along information, in sharing skills and ideas and welcoming others to the group.

 

Executive Core Committee

The overall organization of Valley Women’s Association is run by the Coordinators and Assistant Coordinators of each Chapter, who meet four times per year.
