SWWAN Founding Member Profiles The SWWAN® storyIt started one Easter Sunday morning when 3 single working women were sitting around the table sharing a champagne-and-strawberries brunch to celebrate the day. "I've just spent a blue fortune on the showers, bachelorette parties, and weddings of three friends," said one friend. "Doesn't seem right that we single women have to spend all this money on friends who are becoming part of a two-person-and-usually-two-income household! When do we get to have people buy presents for us?" Andthe truth about the "invisibility" of single women in our couples-oriented society became clear. Thus, the idea was born for Single Working Women's Week. One friend said, "Hey, I know how to get official holidays proclaimed. I'll submit this idea, and if they approve it, we'll just see what we can do to change the world." As you probably know by now, Chase's Calendar of Events agreed that Single Working Women's Week was a really good idea and published it as an official holiday beginning the first week of August, 2007. And so we became SWWAN--the Single Working Women's Affiliate Network. Read about our Mission, Vision, and Values and our People. We've been working ever since to find ways to help each other celebrate our choices and enhance our single lifestyle. We invite you to join us in the network of SWWAN. Please celebrate with us the first week of every August--and join SWWAN where women celebrate their strength, courage and joy every day (well, most days) of their lives!
