On October 4, 6-8 P.M., New York Women Social Entrepreneurs (NYWSE) invites you to the NYWSE "How she does it" Dinner Series Launch featuring guest speaker Amber Chand, Co-Founder of Prosperity Candle Company.

Join us for a night of insightful conversation and inspiring ideas, as Amber shares her experiences as a social entrepreneur, businesswoman, and humanitarian. Our event host, Smorgas Chef Restaurants, has created a vegetarian tasting menu, highlighting a selection of French-Scandinavian crepe delicacies and wine pairings from Argentina and Italy.

About Amber Chand:
Born in East Africa of Indian parentage and expelled from her country during a time of political turmoil in her youth, Amber Chand developed a profound interest in women’s empowerment, economic security around the world, and the role of business as a transformational agent for social change and peace building. She co-founded Prosperity Candle Company, a social venture that invests in enterprising women living in distressed areas of the world who are excited to start their own businesses producing distinctive candles for local and international markets. Prosperity Candle focuses on places that are torn by conflict and social unrest, devastated by natural disaster, and trapped in never-ending poverty.
