ROOM TO GROW WAS A NIGHT FILLED WITH CELEBRATION, EDUCATION AND EXCITEMENT
On February 6th over 200 attendees enjoyed a Taste of Tuscany wine tasting and pairing, discovered how the WLN made a dramatic difference for programs in our community last year, felt moved and inspired by The Honorable Justice Yvette McGee Brown, and were challenged to become engaged in opportunity for the coming year by new co-chairs, Suzi Wagner and Michele Savoldi.
Thank you to everyone who attended this year's event. We are very excited for another year of making a difference in our community!

WOMEN'S LEADERSHIP NETWORK IS ALMOST TO OUR $80,000 GOAL - WE NEED YOUR HELP TO GET THERE - PLEASE MAKE A GIFT TODAY!
Currently the WLN has raised $71,000. We only need $9,000 more to reach our goal! With your help we can do it! We are making a plea that you please renew or increase your giving level today!
This money will allow us to invest in various local programs, like our brand new "Supplies For Scholars" event to be held this summer that will literally "stuff a bus" with school supplies and backpacks for Delaware area children to better prepare them for school.
EVERY gift makes a difference! With your continued faith in our mission of empowering women and families, we can exceed our goal and continue transforming lives of our neighbors in Delaware County.
We are asking all members to renew or make a gift to WLN today. Thanks!
