WGC Donors and Friends,
This fall has been busy for us as we prepare for the upcoming holiday season and plan for 2021.
One of the things we are planning for is our 2021 Virtual Annual Celebration - "Celebrating (S)heroes Among Us" on Monday, March 8, 2021 - International Women's Day. Please Save-the-Date! We are excited to offer a number of terrific sponsorship opportunities for individual women and businesses of all sizes - take a look at our online Sponsorship Center. I would love to talk to you about the chance to sponsor the WGC - please don't hesitate to contact me! Many thanks to the numerous sponsors who have already chosen to invest in our 2021 Annual Celebration!
We have a lot of great things going on - would you like to learn more about the WGC and what we're doing? Join us for a brief, but interactive Membership Monday chat on Monday, November 16 at 4:30 pm. Once each month we are now hosting a Membership Monday 30-minute Zoom chat, where you can meet members of the WGC’s Advisory Board, hear about the WGC, how you might get involved, and have a chance to ask questions. We look forward to meeting you – register today and join us!
I look forward to "seeing" you soon!
Warm regards,
Barb Van Winkle
WGC Chair

 "Dear Mama: A Virtual Event on Pregnancy and Motherhood Through the Eyes of Emerging Female Artists of Color"
We were honored to support "Dear Mama" on October 24 - a virtual event on pregnancy and motherhood through the eyes of emerging female artists of color. "It was even more than we could have imagined - from beautiful art to meaningful conversations. The exhibit should be available within the next week at the Library for continued viewing." - Faye McCray & Kamilah House, Curators

Thanks to everyone who took action this month and donated $1,500+ to help our partners at the Community Action Council purchase needed feminine hygiene products. In less than an hour we collectively raised over $1,500. “Wow" said Bita Dayhoff, Executive Director of the Community Action Council. "Thank you so much on behalf of the CAC and many, many women and girls in Howard County.” We appreciate every single WGC member who donates any amount to support women and girls through our Emergency Response Network - thank you!
