Journée internationale de la femme

March 8^th is International Women’s Day and Urban Poling salutes all women who make a difference in the lives of others each and every day.  We are proud to be 100% owned and operated by two amazing women, Mandy Shintani and Diana Oliver who are both certified through the WBENC (Women’s Business Enterprise National Council). This prestigious certification recognizes women that own control, operate and manage operate 51% of their businesses-here’s to women empowering other women!
