“Don’t think about making women fit the world, think about making the world fit women.” - Gloria Steinem

Gloria Steinem is an American journalist and social-political activist who became nationally recognized as a leader and a spokeswoman for the feminist movement in the late 1960s and early 1970s. She was a columnist for New York magazine and a co-founder of Ms magazine.

Among her achievements, she helped establish Take Our Daughters to Work Day in the 1990s and co-founded the Women’s Media Center, an organization that works to make women visible and powerful in the media, in 2005 with Jane Fonda and Robin Morgan.

March 8, 2024 was International Women's Day!

The first International Women's Day (IWD) was held in March 1911. IWD isn’t country, group, or organization-specific. It is a day of collective global activism and celebration that belongs to all those committed to forging women’s equality. This year, the theme of the day was Inspire Inclusion.

To inspire inclusion means to emphasize the importance of diversity and empowerment in all aspects of society. Inclusion plays a crucial role in achieving gender equality. It calls for action to break down barriers, challenge stereotypes, and create environments where all women are valued and respected. WII members struck the #InspireInclusion pose to show solidarity. When we truly value difference, inclusion comes from the heart. 

Nice to Meet You, Whitney Miller!

How did you get started in our industry?

My great-grandfather founded Fullerton Tool Company, and my grandfather ran it from the '70s - 2000s. Now, my uncle and cousin are running it. I will be a part of the Fourth Generation, and I couldn’t be more excited.

WII Gives at ISA24

WII is giving back at ISA24! While in Charlotte, NC for ISA24, we will raise funds and build “Busy Bags” for the Ronald McDonald House of Greater Charlotte. Our goal is to build 300 Busy Bags which are given out to children of families who are suffering from either an illness or have been relocated to a Ronald McDonald House while a family member is in the hospital.

Please join us at the ISA24 Opening Night Reception at the NASCAR Hall of Fame to participate in this event.
