CANDLE LIGHTING is when BPW Members around the globe come together to participate in a special tribute to the International Federation of Business and Professional Women, which unites women around the world.
BPW was founded more than 90 years ago by Dr. Lena Madesin Phillips from the United States of America and she conceived the idea of the Candle Lighting Ceremony.
Through the efforts and influence of Dr Lena Madesin Phillips, groups were organized in several countries and in 2021 there are now 25000 members around the world.
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
