Support Women on Maps Challenge : #SupportWomenBusinessWithMaps 💜

Behind every women-owned business is a story of courage, resilience, and determination. A dream that refused to give up. A risk that turned into opportunity. And often, a journey that needed just a little more visibility.

This March, as we approach International Women’s Day, let’s use our power as Local Guides to make that visibility intentional.

Today, I’m launching the #SupportWomenBusinessWithMaps Challenge — a month-long movement inviting all Local Guides to actively support women-owned businesses on Google Maps.

A thoughtful review.
A helpful photo.
An updated detail.
A simple rating.

These small contributions can increase discoverability, build trust, and help women entrepreneurs grow stronger within their communities.

:purple_heart: How to Participate:

• Add a review for a women-owned business
• Upload helpful photos or videos
• Update information or answer questions
• Share your support post on Connect using #SupportWomenBusinessWithMaps and #MapsForAll. Don’t forget to tag me !

:date: Challenge Duration: March 1 – March 31
At the end of March, I will compile and share a list of all participating Local Guides under this post to celebrate the collective impact we created together.

This challenge is open to everyone ; because when we support women in business, we strengthen entire communities.

If you wish to know ‘How to contribute towards women-owned businesses on Maps’ , read this post. It also has a video for you to understand better.

Let’s make March a month of meaningful contributions.
Who’s ready to map with purpose? :purple_heart:

It would be kind of show off but she left us a year ago. The shop was inside her house. May God bless her soul. After that I started buying goods from an old age uncle.

That’s a great initiative @Globe_trotter_Ish I love the idea and Supporting Local Businesses is one of my favorite things apart from pinpointing places and adding roads. You go far beyond with “Women” that is very empowering.

Toto je taká úžasná a posilňujúca iniciatíva! Veľmi pekne ďakujem @Globe_trotter_Ish za spustenie výzvy #SupportWomenBusinessWithMaps.

​Tento nápad podporujem z celého srdca, pretože podpora firiem vedených ženami je nevyhnutná pre prosperujúcu komunitu. Už teraz hľadám inšpiratívne miesta vlastnené ženami v mojom okolí a čoskoro pridám svoj príspevok do tejto výzvy! :wheelchair_symbol:
​Teším sa na všetky úžasné príspevky od ostatných!"
