Members of BPW International

Invitation to the 50th Anniversary Event of BPW Japan in Tokyo

Dear Sisters,

Representing BPW Japan, I am very pleased to invite you to our 50th anniversary event of BPW Japan which will be held on the 14th of June, 2008 in Tokyo. In 1958, three working women’s groups (in Tokyo, Nagoya and Osaka) have gathered and established the women’s national organization which developed into the BPW Japan.

We should be immensely honored if we have, on this special occasion, the attendance of some BPW-International members. We hope to consolidate our friendship and seek a better way to cooperate with each other in promoting the well-being of women all over the world.
We are heartily grateful to you for your acceptance to attend our celebration and this international symposium. We also ask you to express your opinion as one of the panelists and, of course , as president of BPW-International.

All members of BPW International are invited to all the programs of the conference stated below, as well as to the reception of our honorable guests. Please use the attached form to advise us of the BPW members who will be attending at our conference by the 14th of June, 2008. If you need information and/or assistance with your hotel reservations in Tokyo, please let us know; we shall be happy to help you.

We are looking forward to your reply.

Yours sincerely,

Nobuko Kurosaki
President of BPW Japan
