Mission: Women's Initiative Networking Groups, Inc. (WINGS), located in Berea, KY, is a private, non-profit organization founded by three women entrepreneurs from Kentucky's Appalachian region in December 1994. The program is designed to build the economic and social capacity of a disenfranchised group within the Appalachian culture, primarily low and moderate-income women with children. Through technical assistance and peer support, WINGS encourages its members to create opportunities which will enhance both the potential and productivity of their lives.
