This new bi-annual column, "AWIS Corporate Corner" has been added to the spectacular offerings of AWIS Magazine because, as a freshly minted member of the AWIS Board, I wanted to make an immediate and tangible contribution to the organization on a much broader level than I have been able to do as a member of my local San Diego Chapter. I thought my contribution should be one that would have a great impact on the future of all women in science and engineering disciplines for years to come. What better way to do this than to ensure that the value of AWIS is known to all global corporate entities engaged in scientific or engineering business activities, whether large or small? In addition, the purpose of this column is to educate corporations about the multifold benefits of contributions to AWIS. It is important that the national umbrella organization of AWIS continues to be financially viable and establish an endowment that will ensure the ongoing presence of the organization for as long as it is needed. This is where corporations can help!
