We must absolutely say thank you and show our gratitude to the amazing Ava Y. Taylor who personally put together our special gifts for the panelist at IWD. We love and adore her for showing up for us and being the most compassionate person ?? Thank you Ava, the gifts were beautiful ??!
It has been a week, and we are still overwhelmed by the incredible response to our International Women's Day Breakfast "Her Game, Her Glory", Championing Women In Sports. Celebrating women is essential, and it is important to honor, uplift, and give/receive our flowers now, not later. Our panel of women spoke honestly, offering support and wisdom that resonated with our audience. The insights shared were powerful, and the lessons taken away will have a lasting impact. This event wouldn't have been possible without our inspiring panel, Allison Barber. PhD, Allison Melangton, Larra Overton, and Olivia West. We want to thank you for every word that you said and every story you shared. We took away all the nuggets and then some! We want to thank our dedicated event planner, Lenesha Stone, and her team, who were outstanding with every request and support. Our executive director, Christy Walchle, for her amazing drive and energy in keeping us focused and on task. I also want to welcome our newly introduced board members, Erin Bess, MBA and Marian Mutch. We are extremely excited to have you on our board and looking forward to all your new ideas to help move Pass The Torch forward. Thank you to our board for your support in helping us to continue the celebration of IWD, and to our immediate past chair, Akilah Darden, MBA LEED AP?? you made magic happen and pulled out all of the stops to help us secure the vision we had for the panel. Thank you sincerely for your support. Congratulations to our Mentor/Mentee pair winners, Karen Hill and Jetta Vaughn, SHRM-SCP. Your stories and relationship are the reasons why Pass The Torch will continue to support mentoring women. Thank you, Sarah Myer for your gift donation and your support. (You rocked two events in one day ??) Thank you to our photographers, Demel Bolden and Lisa Lee Harbaugh. Demel, the videos were also amazing. Thank you for the before and after videos. We are deeply grateful to everyone who made this celebration so special! International Women's Day (IWD) is more than just a day—it is a month-long celebration. We look forward to supporting all the organizations that continue to uplift and honor women throughout March!
