The Lawrence Women's Network (LWN) is a business and social organization for professional and managerial women. LWN was founded to provide a place for businesswomen to socialize and share their career experiences. LWN continues in recognition of the fact that every business woman needs to regularly widen and update her business knowledge; be reminded of old ideas and exposed to new ones; make new contacts; better herself and her work; be encouraged by others; and socialize with others in similar positions.

The organization is non-sectarian, non-partisan and non-profit. Since its purpose is not political, the organization will not take any official stands on political issues or in favor of political candidates.
