    Stop by NABFEME.org and check out the slide on the homepage.  You'll meet one of our NABFEME Rocks (Robert Johnson), get to know some of our Sisters Behind The Beat, and don't miss "High Heels in High Places" featuring Attorney Lita Rosario-Richardson.  New videos are posted, member news and more.  As we prepare to enter a new year... the need for our mission is now stronger than ever! 

    We still face uncertainty as the pandemic is not over, sponsor support is slow and we've had to minimize our programs... still we rise! 

    As we plan our movement in 2023... WE NEED YOUR INPUT! Many times we play a guessing game because we don't know what you want, we don't know what you'd like to do, or what issues you'd like to see the organization address... and most importantly we'd love to tell the world about your accomplishments... but we can't do that unless you tell us. In fact, we can do any of this without your input!

    Let's end the guessing game! Let's strive to thrive in 2023!! If there is something on your mind, tell us. If there is something you'd like to do... tell us! You just wrote a book, started a podcast, got a promotion... TELL US! We are stronger together!

    Welcome!! Brand Elevation Marketing

    Deneen Womack and Gwendolyn Kingsberry are two long time members of NABFEME.  Both have entrenched their marketing fingerprints on WBLS in New York, and recently they created their own marketing/branding firm called Brand Elevation Marketing. With a desire to further develop NABFEME in the "Big Apple" while increasing our activities and brand presence ... a meeting in the ladies room became necessary and the partnership ensued! Our first joint venture with Brand Elevation Marketing was the very successful New York Women in Radio virtual session that was presented during Women’s History Month. 

    As the partnership develops, Deneen & Gwen will keep us abreast of New York opportunities and also bring development potential to the table. Look forward to membership drives, seminars, events and more as we develop.
