Last night the JLLI hosted it’s first Meet & Greet of the year and it was a spectacular evening. The women who attended were greeted and welcomed with such grace and excitement as our members got to speak with them and share a little bit about what brought them to the League. It was such a testament of how powerful the League is in bringing together women from all walks and stages of life for a common purpose and good.
Each person comes to the League for a different reason, whether it is to meet new people, learn new skills, or to be a part of improving the community. No matter what the reason, it is such a joy to see how each person who has joined the League comes together as we work toward a common goal and yet grow as individuals stretching our abilities in a safe environment that allows us to become stronger women who are empowered and inspired to do more for the community.
Personally, I have gained so much from my time in the League and I hope that this coming year I can ensure that each and every one of the members of the League are able to grow even further as I work with the Board and Committee Chairs to organize this year's events and projects. If last night is any indication of how our year will be, then I could not be any more excited or proud and hope that if you were not able to join us last night, that you will consider attending our next one in August!
