Join your EWGA golf buddies at our annual Member Appreciation Party (formerly known as the Year-End Banquet)! We’ll have Door Prizes, our League Basket Auction, Minute-to-Win it competition, Year-End wrap up, and maybe a few surprises thrown in! Your Chapter Board voted to use some of the money we have had in savings from years past to supplement the cost of the banquet. This means each member’s cost to attend the banquet has been greatly reduced – by almost 50%!
All proceeds from the Basket Auction will go to benefit Dress for Success Seattle. At the party, we will be collecting cleaned suits, gently used handbags & shoes, jewelry & accessories, and toiletry products – i.e. make-up, nail polish, deodorant. Dress for Success is a not-for-profit organization whose mission is to promote the economic independence of disadvantaged women by providing professional attire, a network of support and the career development tools to help women thrive in work and in life.
