May 2012
Dear WGC Donors and Friends,

We've had a busy few months and it's been great to see so many of our donors and friends at our events!

 

Our Special Evening with Deborah Owens on May 3 and our Mother's Day Tea on May 6 were wonderful! We shared good conversation, information and cheer.

 

And, we are looking forward to the Her Mind Magazine   

"Power of the Purse" We hope to see many of you there!

 

Our 2012 Circle Team  was incredible at  the Iron Girl Columbia 1/2 Marathon and 5K on April 29, and they are gearing up for the Iron Girl Columbia Triathlon on August 19. Didn't get a spot? We still have a few community spots left! The team is not only training strong, but fundraising strong too - we are at almost $10k of our $30k goal - you can support the team here.

 

And, we are so proud of our Young Women's Giving Circle, who had a busy month! They presented their grant to Girls on the Run of Central Maryland at the GOTR 5K. They also had a great fundraiser this month, and we then had a beautiful gathering to say goodbye to this year's YWGC class - what an amazing group of young women!

 

Sincerely,


Caroline Sherman, Chair
