Rising Numbers of Single Women Have New Help
Today's woman--single and otherwise--has to meet challenges unheard-of in previous generations. As the number of single women continues to climb, the need to provide affordable, relevant help grows. 'Secrets you wish your mom told you' is a series of online classes that offer real help you can use right away in your everyday life.
Chicago, IL, August 01, 2009 --(PR.com)-- Today SWWAN(R) Inc. and the SWWAN Foundation announce the first of their annual Women's Empowerment Conference to celebrate Single Working Women's Week, August 2 -8.
