Our recent Soiree into Action was a great
success! Participants swapped stories and shared the passion behind their
action.
1. Mayor Reinette Senum, who is fueled by
her community, reinforced the importance of a support team. Whether
you're running for office, running a business, or running a household we all
need loyal supporters to cheer on our endeavors and serve as a sound
board. Organizations, such as The White House Project are encouraging all
of us to lead our life with others. Balanced leadership will most likely
require a critical mass of women who are ready to run and support each
other.
2. Councilwoman Sally Harris' passion led
her to politics when she least expected it. She reminded us that negative
experiences can often lead to better opportunities.
3. Power can occur in numbers but
only if we make our voices heard. Most Americans are everyday
people, the working class. Yet, Vice-Mayor and candidate for the State
Assembly, Christina Billeci expressed her concern that more working class
citizens need to vote and get involved for a shift to occur in America.
Many thanks to all of you who are
supporting our efforts with The White House Project and
a special thanks to guests, Vice-Mayor Christina Billeci ,
Councilwoman Sally Harris, and Mayor Reinette Senum. We
are also extremely grateful to the individuals and businesses who contributed
to the silent auction.
