The 37th Annual Meeting of The Women's Center will be held on Tuesday evening, September 28, 2010 at 6:00pm at 405 County Street, New Bedford. Community Awards are the highlight of the evening, as well as presentations by Board President, June Mendell and Executive Director, Pamela MacLeod-Lima. Light refreshments will be served and all donors and friends of TWC are invited to attend.

We are in the process of confirming the dates for the Tree Lighting at the beginning of the month and the Candlelight Vigil near the end of the month. The program for the Vigil includes the Silent Witnesses, that tells the stories of domestic violence homicide victims during the past year and remembers local victims, music, survivor speakers, and the Clothesline Project at the First Unitarian Church, 8th & Union Streets, New Bedford. The public is invited to attend. Check back soon for times and more information about DVAM activities.

You can make a difference this Holiday Season by joining our gift card appeal called Gather to Give. Collect Gift Cards for our families in need at your holiday get-togethers or "gatherings" - book clubs, bowling leagues, churches, schools, workplace and personal parties - make the "price of admission" a gift card for our clients, or ask guests to bring a gift card as a hostess gift or in lieu of a grab to be donated to The Women's Center. Gift cards to Target, Walmart, Stop & Shop, Shaw's, CVS or any store of your choice ($25, $50 or any amount) allow Moms and teens to buy just what they need and want in the right sizes and colors, or buy food for a special holiday meal. Give the "gift of choice" this year and make a difference for a family in need.

For more information, contact Rebecca McCullough at 508-996-3343, Ext 25 or email.
