Independent Women’s Network Launches Annapolis Chapter
ANNAPOLIS, MD — Today, Independent Women’s Network (IWN), the national grassroots community activist arm of Independent Women’s Voice, celebrated the launch of its Annapolis, Maryland Chapter. This chapter joins chapters around the country and an online community of more than 20,000 IWN members.
The Chapter Leader is Sherry Gately. She worked for years leading substance abuse and violence prevention initiatives in the Anne Arundel County public school system. She lives with her husband Michael in downtown Annapolis, and enjoys spending time with her three daughters and five grandchildren.
Gately said, “I am proud to start an Annapolis chapter of Independent Women’s Network. There are so many women in our area who want to connect with other strong, smart and independent-minded women to work for a better country. We want to support each other and look for ways to make an impact and be heard in Annapolis and across the state of Maryland. Independent Women’s Network is an empowered community that I am pleased to join.”
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’s Carrie Lukas. “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 Director Julie Gunlock. “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 Director Jenny Avis (jenny.avis@iwnetwork.com) or visit iwnetwork.com for more information.
