WBON of the Triangle: Empowering Women Entrepreneurs

The Women Business Owners Network (WBON) of the Triangle proudly celebrates over 25 years of empowering women entrepreneurs and making a lasting impact across North Carolina. Founded on July 21, 1998, WBON is a nonprofit organization dedicated to inspiring, educating, and empowering women to transform their lives, businesses, and communities.

Through monthly luncheon meetings, WBON offers members access to inspirational and educational speakers, annual fundraising events and quarterly socials. These opportunities help women business owners-and those transitioning from traditional jobs-build connections, gain tools for growth, and create lasting professional relationships.

As a nonprofit, WBON also extends its mission by supporting other nonprofits. Each quarter, WBON selects community-focused organizations to uplift not just with time and talent, but with tangible resources-including monetary donations and in-kind support. This commitment to giving back reflects WBON's belief in holistic empowerment, where success is shared and service is central.

In April 2025, WBON hosted a community outreach initiative in Asheville, NC, collaborating with Dress for Success Triangle NC, Habitat for Humanity, and others to aid families impacted by recent floods. Efforts included distributing toiletry kits, professional clothing, job readiness tools, and volunteer labor. Other recent partnerships include Gigi's House, Blue Cross NC, ZACK Toys, the Food Bank, Zebulon schools, and more.

This impactful work led to WBON being honored with the 2025 Community Service Award by the Cary Chamber of Commerce.

WBON's leadership team includes:

* Jodi Free, President (Platinum Business Solutions)
* Dr. Rita Renee Gibson, Vice President & Social Media Chair (G & G Professionals)
* Wanda Clayton, Secretary (Timeless Photography)
* Tammy Smith, Treasurer (HomeTrust Bank)

Monthly meetings are held on the second Tuesday of each month from 11:30 AM to 1:30 PM at the Prestonwood Country Club in Cary, NC.
