WREN began in 1994, with an ambitious plan to create an 8-month training and
support program to assist 12 very low-income women in achieving their dreams of
business ownership.Encouraged by the positive results from this pilot project,
we began building what we today refer to as the 'WREN Community'.
WREN
inspires possibilities, creates opportunities and builds connections through
community. Our work connects people with one another, provides access to
resources many couldn't afford on their own, offers learning opportunities
including entrepreneurial business training and technical assistance, creates
and supports markets for entrepreneurs, actively engages in Bethlehem's
revitalization, and serves a national model for rural economic and community
development.
