Together Women Rise is Tomorrow

Together Women Rise is a powerful community of women and allies dedicated to achieving global gender equality. There are hundreds of local chapters across the U.S. where members learn about and advocate for gender equality issues, give grants to organizations that empower women and girls in low-income countries, and build community to forge meaningful connections that increase our strength and collective impact.

The local chapter's next meeting is tomorrow, February 19, from noon to 2:00 pm in our Lighthouse. All are welcome to attend the potluck and presentation. Contact Merry G for more information.
