Ramallah Business Professionals Network (RBPN)

Our Future of Our Federation

Mission Statement:

The Ramallah Business and Professional Network (RBPN) consists of all paid professionals of the AFRP, 18 and over, that utilize their skills, experiences, and family values within the Ramallah community. Our RBPN’s primary goal and purpose is to create activities and to support the Federation in all areas to achieve the AFRP’s goals and objectives through social, cultural, educational, humanitarian, and professional networking; and to educate our local communities (Arab and non-Arab) to eliminate stereotypes and to strengthen and grow our culture and heritage. Further, RBPN promotes education, networking, mentoring, advocacy and service within our community and non-Arab communities.
