Also, check our our sponsorship opportunities. Thank you to all our current and past sponsors - without you, we would not be able to offer our many programs and events each year ... your support, energy and enthusiasm is greatly appreciated!

| Did You Know? Two Statistics .... |
| A recent survey by the University of Kentucky highlighted that 90% of teenage girls report that they have been sexually harassed.
And, a recent U.S. News & World Report article highlighted that for the first time ever, women gave more than men - in 2006. Women gave 21.7 billion -vs- men giving 16.8 billion.
These two statistics underscore why we volunteer our time and financial resources to the WGC, and how we are all empowered to address issues we care about through philanthropy.
Thank you for your continued investment in the WGC. |
