History
DC Web Women began in 1999 as a chapter of Webgrrls.[3] The group was started in a coffee shop by Debbie Weil and Catherine Buzzel.[2] This initial meeting between the two women led to a second meeting in a women owned internet café in the Washington DC area with three additional like-minded women: Cathy Ganssle, Shellie Holubek, and Miriam Jaffe. This meeting led to the foundation of the organization DC Web Women.[2]
On February 15, 1999, the organization registered as a non-profit and was renamed to "DC Web Women."[2]
