As a member of Ceosister.net we are very interested in your observations and opinions. We also have an expectation that our sister members will take the initiative to help one another.
Throughout the site you will see the term "Pay It Forward". If you are not familiar with the term it refers to the assistance or favors we have received from either friends, colleagues or family and our response of thanks, I'll pay you back. Well, instead of worrying about paying someone back "Pay the favor Forward, hence "Pay It Forward". If you are fortunate to have others who have rescued you, paid a bill for you, given you encouragement, advice whatever the courtesy then take the opportunity to do the same for someone else, especially a woman entrepreneur.
Some of you are already in the habit of Paying It Forward. There are stories of women paying the grocery bill of the family behind them in the grocery line, paying the 10 cars behind them at the toll booth, sending $100 to a struggling global entrepreneur...many other incidents too numerous to mention. Please, especially given the economic down turn and natural disasters think about Paying It Forward and let us know of those instances so we can honor our sisters who have been generous enough to Pay It Forward. We will highlight them and their business on the site.
SUPPORT GROUPS

If you really want to help change the world, invest in an adolescent girl. There are more than 600 million adolescent girls living in developing countries today, the majority of whom live in very limited circumstances. The opportunities available to them will impact an entire generation of men and women. You can invest in the future today at www.thegirlfund.org
