Join us for lunch on September 15 and invite a friend! This year's luncheon is one you won't want to miss as we celebrate 20 years of impact, look ahead to WGC's next chapter, and share some exciting news. Whether you're a longtime member or joining us for the first time, we hope you'll be part of this special afternoon. Tickets are limited, so don't wait to register!
PROGRAM
We're pleased to welcome Denise Hill, Executive Director of the Literacy Council of Frederick County, who will share how a Women's Giving Circle grant is expanding literacy and life skills opportunities for women throughout Frederick County. Learn how this transformative program is empowering women to build confidence, achieve their goals, and create brighter futures for themselves and their families.
We'll also celebrate WGC's 20th anniversary, recognize our transition to an independent nonprofit, welcome our newest members, and unveil a refreshed brand that honors our history while reflecting the exciting future ahead.
COLLECTION
In support of the Literacy Council, we'll be collecting new children's and young adult books at the luncheon. If you're able, please consider bringing a book to help expand literacy opportunities for children and families throughout Frederick County.
It's one more way we can come together to strengthen our community and support the important work of one of our grant partners.
REGISTRATION
Women's Giving Circle membership is open to all, and this event is open to both members and non-members. Members are encouraged to bring a friend who may be interested in learning more about WGC and the power of collective giving.
Registration will close on Tuesday, September 8, so we can provide the venue with a final attendance count.
