Network Corner: Spotlight on the Georgia Network
The IWIRC-Georgia Network was founded in 2001 as an organization to foster and promote networking among women in the restructuring industry in Georgia. Over time, our membership has grown to over 70 members across the state. Our members include dynamic women from diverse professional backgrounds, including judges, lawyers, bankers, turnaround professionals, financial advisors and other restructuring practitioners at all levels of practice. We strive to provide a regular forum for meeting, networking, and exchanging ideas, and to host a variety of different events each year.
This past year was a busy one for IWIRC-Georgia. While we continued to plan a variety of different events for our members, we also focused on expanding our membership and influence by working on different community service projects, partnering with other networks to host regional events, and by working with other local professional organizations to host innovative and interesting educational panels.
Community Involvement
IWIRC continued its community service efforts by partnering with Habitat for Humanity to raise funds to sponsor and construct a home for a working mother and her family. Over seven weeks, nearly 300 women volunteers worked side-by-side with the homebuyer to construct the house. IWIRC-Georgia members rolled up their sleeves and participated in the Atlanta Women’s Build in sweltering temperatures in August 2015. This fall, IWIRC-Georgia received a plaque recognizing its efforts at the dedication of the home. Other community events include an interactive good credit badge activity for the Girl Scouts of Georgia and a financial literacy panel with Dress for Success.
