This month's President's Message
Dear friends,
If you haven’t already, I hope you will reserve your ticket/s for the AWGLR Thanksgiving Dinner coming up on Sunday November 17th. You should have already received an Evite where you can RSVP along with a HelloAsso link to purchase dinner and raffle tickets. Thanksgiving is our flagship event of the year and I encourage you to invite friends and family to attend. Some of the best home cooks in Montpellier will be bringing their delicious side dishes and desserts to share!
Once again there will be fabulous raffle baskets filled with prizes custom designed by many our activity groups. Noel Gaussens, our FAWCO liaison, will be ‘spilling the beans’ about some of them over the next few weeks in the FFRs. This will be our biggest fundraising event of the year, so please be generous. All raffle proceeds will support FAWCO charities around the world lifting up women and girls.
And, if you have a special item that you would like to donate for the raffle, please don’t hesitate to contact Noel directly.
Let’s take a moment to express gratitude for all that we have in our lives, and especially the friendships and camaraderie we have within AWGLR and the the FAWCO network around the world.
I hope I’ll see many of you for Thanksgiving dinner on November 17th, but if you cannot join us, I wish you and your family a warm and wonderful Thanksgiving.
All the best,
Jennifer Hodge Jerzyk
President 2024-25
