One of the most enjoyable parts of the holiday season is the satisfaction we get when we give to those we love.
The League of Women Voters of Santa Monica has asked recently you for donations, and of course, these are always deeply appreciated. Another good way you can support the League is by giving a membership to someone you love and respect.
A membership in the League supports the national League as it fights for the rights of voters throughout the country.
It supports the League of Women Voters of California as it tirelessly advocates for League positions in the state legislature.
And of course, it supports our League as we educate and advocate on a local, grass-roots level.
So please consider giving a membership in the League of Women Voters of Santa Monica this holiday season. It's easy - just go to http://www.lwvsantamonica.org/join.html
And do drop by our holiday open-house to enjoy a little bubbly and good company - we'd love to see you and your friends there.
We wish you all a joyous and peaceful holiday season,
Ann K. Williams
President

BE A LEAGUE HELPER
|
|
There are many ways you can help the League throughout the year, but few are as easy and fun as the one I'm suggesting this month. Drink champagne! Enjoy sparkling conversation! Meet your neighbors! - Of course, I'm talking about our holiday party.
I can't in good conscience ask you to do another task during such a busy season, but we would love to see you and a friend - no, make that friends - at our open house. And you will be supporting the League by exposing new people to our great organization, so, you see, you will be a helper, all while having fun.
Hope to see you there!
Ann K. Williams
President
