About Our Organization

Women Accelerators is a nonprofit organization passionate about promoting women’s advancement. We are focused on giving women the tools they need to succeed in working towards bridging the gender gap. The lack of gender equality and the under-representation of women at the senior level is evident in the boardroom from the corporate 500 to startups. Women Accelerators serve women in all stages of their careers, providing them with a solid foundation to succeed.

Our mission is to provide a centralized network and community where career-focused women can access resources tailored to their career goals. By offering networking opportunities, mentoring, and educational programs, we help women navigate work opportunities that will nurture female leaders. Our vision is to generate a community of like-minded, high-achieving women who help each other to succeed in the workplace.

Together, we Engage, Empower, and Elevate!

Women Accelerators is a component fund of the Greater Lowell Community Foundation, which is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization.
