Girlfriends Who Inspire Change (GWIC), LLC is a cause-driven social enterprise network based in the United States that sells e-commerce products and services online. Our unique business model combines the social impact of a non-profit company with a for-profit commercial model. We aim to use our products and services to address economic inequality and promote social transformation. Through product sales, we ensure our existence, mission, and viability. At GWIC, we envision a world where all women and girls are empowered, regardless of ethnicity. While we started with Black women in mind, we aim to create an entrepreneurial ecosystem and innovative pathway to benefit all women, especially those from minority groups. We strive to better everyone's lives, including vulnerable communities. GWIC is a nontraditional business model and an excellent resource for information. Our mission is to support individuals, organizations and causes that uplift humanity.
As a for-profit company, our primary objective is to help women develop business ideas and opportunities to improve their economic circumstances and escape poverty. Our community initiatives offer a practical virtual learning center through affiliate marketing partnerships. This expands women's and girls' knowledge for future learning and development. Additionally, we host monthly online chat discussions where women can exchange perspectives, share their ideas and experiences, and create bonding networks and project collaborations. GWIC also offers toiletry giveaways and empowers small, domestic, and international businesses by providing brand exposure, building alliances, and marketing their products. We encourage women to become change agents in leadership, wealth building, politics, education, community, and promoting moral values. International organizations and sisterhood networks anchor our cooperative.
GWIC was founded in 2014 and incorporated in 2017. That same year, we became a partner of the World Bank Group (WBG) and the International Monetary Fund (IMF). The WBG is an international organization with 189 member countries and offices in over 130 locations. In 2019, GWIC became a member and friend of the U.N. Women's Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC) as a global network partner. In 2023, GWIC was selected as a recipient of the WBG and U.S. Commercial Services Minority Business Outreach Roadshow.
