In honor of International Women’s Day, this year's theme is #ChooseToChallenge by raising awareness against bias and honoring the social, economic, cultural and political achievements of women. The day also marks a call to action for accelerating women's equality and celebrating women's achievement.

The world is a tough place for entrepreneurs, but there are ways to help. Anyone who wants to support small businesses should learn about the many things they can do - actions as simple as buying from them or telling other people about their companies.  Whether it's a smile or a kind word, anything can have an impact on women-owned businesses. These gestures will have such an impact on women-owned companies that it's worth your time and attention.
