Independent Women’s Network Celebrates Expansion in Arizona, Launches Three New State Chapters
PHOENIX, AZ — Today, Independent Women’s Network (IWN), the national grassroots community activist arm of Independent Women’s Voice, proudly celebrates its momentum and growth in the state of Arizona with the addition of three new chapters. Events took place this summer launching IWN chapters in Chandler, the West Valley, and a Spanish-speaking chapter in Phoenix. These chapters join the original Arizona chapter of the women’s membership organization, 30 other chapters around the country, and an online community of more than 39,000 IWN members.
“IWN Chandler serves to educate women on legislation at a local level to create big change. We vow to learn, help protect women’s rights, children and stay connected to promote a healthy community for Chandler. Join us and get involved!” said Chandler Chapter Leader Sami Keddington. Keddington is a dedicated wife, mother, and professional disc golfer who is passionate about the issue of preserving women’s sports. Keddington has directed and assisted numerous disc golf tournaments and leagues, including the prestigious Phoenix Ladies Open.
Bella Denise Ceballos-Viner, leader of El Capítulo de Phoenix, AZ, is motivated by her faith and a focus on enhancing parental rights by providing resources to enable informed decisions to benefit children’s futures.
“We are thrilled to launch the first Spanish-speaking Chapter, El Capítulo de Phoenix, AZ, with IWN to expand our message to the Hispanic community. By doing so, our voice will become stronger despite the language barrier,” said Denise Ceballos-Viner. “IWN and the Hispanic community have multiple shared-values such as school choice, worker freedom, job flexibility for women and healthcare transparency. Our Chapter looks forward to educating and raising awareness about critical women’s issues to support our hardworking families who benefit so much from conservative values.”
The West Valley Chapter Leader Pamela McDonald is a pastor, wife, mom, wealth and life strategist, and entrepreneur. McDonald is also the founder of Pamela McDonald Ministries, The Irresistible Woman and Gorgeous Godly Girlfriends.
“Our Chapter is dedicated to raising awareness about issues that threaten faith, family, and the nation. We empower women to make a positive impact by advocating for policies that support conservative values while fostering a strong sense of community. Our goal, priority and commitment is to ensure every woman’s voice is heard and valued,” said McDonald.
IWN was created to build a supportive community for women and to give them the tools they need to make a positive difference in their neighborhoods and our country.
“We heard from thousands of women from across the country who said they wanted a community where they could connect, share ideas, and take action,” said IWN Director, Julie Gunlock. “We launched the Independent Women’s Network to stand shoulder to shoulder with women who are ready to turn our economy around and fight to save our freedoms by countering the woke mob and standing up to cancel culture and out-of-touch bureaucrats.”
An engaging and growing community of independently-minded women work together to advance shared principles through chapter gatherings and the IWN online movement. Membership to IWN opens access to message boards, curated news, smart content, a resource center, exclusive events, and an action center.
“IWN members are happy warriors who stand up to bullies – bullies with positions in school boards; bullies on social media; bullies in corporations and in politics,” said IWN National Chapter Director, Christy Narsi. “Our Chapters are communities of women who form lasting bonds and are ready to take local action. We support one another, and our members are not alone when they stand up to lead on issues critical to our country.”
Members of the community who are interested in joining Independent Women’s Network should email IWN Membership Coordinator Kiara Kincaid (kiara.kincaid@iwnetwork.com) or visit iwnetwork.com for more information. To learn more about starting a chapter, please visit chapters@iwnetwork.com.
