"Lipstick""Lipstick"

Release Date: 
September 1, 2008

The punch line heard round the world-with its flawless delivery, and powerful metaphor.

Let me offer an alternative introduction: What's the difference between a pack of pit bulls and the GWTK Board of Directors?

You guessed it! "Lipstick."

Our strong, focused, and resilient Board of Directors brings energy, enthusiasm, creativity, collaborative problem solving, and "can do" spirit to the table every hour of every day. How far we've come in 18 months, and how far we will go!

Meet the 2008-2009 Board of Directors! We hope you will choose to join one of our many dynamic committees whose efforts drive our Mission and deliver results to GWTK and to Esperanza.

We say a fond farewell to DC Ware, who served on our Board last year, and introduced the extremely successful “Great Women to Know Mondays” at Esperanza as head of the Service Committee. DC received a well-deserved promotion at Verizon Communications and has relocated out of our area.

With enormous appreciation for their efforts and results, we thank Lucy Abisalih, Chanda Samuels, Andrea Schaut and Amy Moore, who served on our Initial Steering Committee and our first year Board of Directors.
