The BGSU section of the National Council of Negro Women is a student organization that was established in the spring 2008. Its mission is to lead, develop, advocate, inform, and unify the African American women of Bowling Green State University's campus and its surrounding communities as they support their individual, family, and societal efforts and lifestyles.
