About Us
Women Standing Together is non profit organization focused on elevating and inspiring Maine’s women leaders and business owners. Our community comes from a wide array of industries and consists of leaders in their field, business owners, connectors, and innovators. We share an entrepreneurial spirit that drives our desire to connect, seek advice and support the goals of other women.
History
Founded in 2007 at the Maine Women’s Fund, Women Standing Together spun off as a separate nonprofit organization in 2012. It was founded by Kristin Chase Duffy, Jodie Lapchick, Marsha Greenberg, Suzanna Liller, Barbara Babkirk, Robin Lin Hodgskin, and Kevan Lee Deckelmann. We recognize and honor the women who set a solid foundation for their successors to build upon. They continue to have a positive impact on Women Standing Together and on the women in Maine’s expanding business community.
