Power of the Purse 2007

pop_07_photo_web.jpg

In June 2007 more than 430 women attended the second Power of the Purse Luncheon and bid on 174 handbags in a silent auction.

Keynote speaker, author Judith Viorst inspired and entertained.

The luncheon, auction, WLC memberships, and a matching grant raised more than $35,000 to support United Way/Imagination Library partnership. Guests left energized; excited, and talking about "next year." And so were WLC members.

Next year is here!
