State Farm Insurance Companies are supportive of organizations, such as WIFS, that offer our agents an opportunity for networking and personal development. The Portland Chapter of WIFS does that and more. They are truly reflective of the mission statement for WIFS and we are proud to be a sponsor for the Portland Chapter.

Sponsoring WIFS Portland Metro has always been an easy decision. As a Gold Sponsor, I’ve always felt it’s been a very harmonious relationship. The organization secures critical funding to support their mission and deliver the best programs, attract high quality speakers, and provide other various resources to its members; and, I get the gratification of knowing I contributed to that, and in addition, the opportunity to share my story and promote my own business. It’s simply a win-win, both professionally and personally!

On behalf of IronStone Bank, I want to thank WIFS for the opportunity to be a Lunch & Learn Sponsor. IronStone Bank is proud to be associated with such a fast growing and dynamic organization that supports the success of professionals in all aspects of financial services.

Thank you WIFS!

Sponsoring a WIFS Lunch and Learn was one of the best decisions of 2009! My goal with every Lunch & Learn is to connect with someone new, to learn more about that person on a professional as well as personal level.

Having the opportunity to sponsor and have a few moments to share my passion—A Group Real Estate—with a room full of quality business women (and a couple of men) is indeed an honor.

I am thankful for the relationships that grow through WIFS, and I make it priority to attend WIFS events. I will sponsor a Lunch and Learn every year!

Thank you WIFS and Ms. Alice Tang!

As many of you know, I am very passionate about WIFS Portland Metro because it has created a lot of business connections and friendships for me. When I spoke to the audience at our October meeting, I felt I was speaking to my family and my sisters. I was thrilled when Mary Strasdin of Delap, our Lunch & Learn Speaker, had a gift for the audience on a question about my personal pass-time. I felt so special - thank you WIFS Portland Metro and Mary Strasdin!!

I am going to sponsor our Lunch and Learn again in 2010!
