Greater Houston Women's Chamber of Commerce Empowering Women to Reach New Heights Our Health Series directly reached 450 women on the all important issue of preventive health.

The GHWCC has taken major steps towards advancing and empowering Houston women through numerous avenues – from leadership to education to advocacy and mentoring. We have reached over 90,000 readers in our Chronicle Health Series Column, starting the dialogue on prevention as a key element in combating worker absenteeism and health care costs. Our governmental affairs committee has welcomed many of our elected officials to our meetings and events so they can see first hand how influential our membership is. Women are the largest economic force in America. As women who have achieved in times when job opportunities for women were limited, today we have different challenges like raising graduation rates for minority women. This Chamber's success shows how we can do so much more. By becoming a united force for prosperity for all women, and by providing key scholarships to those with great promise, we are also creating the future leaders of this chamber and our community. During the past election year, the glass ceiling took on millions of new cracks thanks to two strong female candidates. We now enjoy a future where the sky is truly the limit. Women have shown they are creative thinkers capable of leading American business to work smarter, faster and become more competitive than ever before. The Greater Houston Women's Chamber of Commerce is a non-profit business organization of highly influential and diverse women and men dedicated to the advancement and empowerment of women through avenues of leadership, education, advocacy, and mentoring.

The Greater Houston Women’s Chamber of Commerce proudly celebrated the conclusion of the 2026 Love What You Do College Mentoring Program.
This meaningful program, led by the GHWCC Education Committee and supported by Dr. Diana Pino, Brandee Rogers, and Joyce Jones, provided Houston-area college junior and senior women with valuable mentorship, networking, professional development, and career exploration opportunities.
Through the program, mentees were matched with professional women whose experience aligned with their chosen career paths. These mentor relationships helped students gain confidence, receive career guidance, expand their networks, and prepare for the next step in their professional journeys.
We are grateful to the mentors, students, Chamber members, and community leaders who made this year’s program a success. GHWCC also extends special thanks to Dress for Success for its support and continued commitment to helping women and young women prepare for professional opportunities and achieve success.
Thank you to everyone who joined us in celebrating the future generation of women leaders.
