Happy May, WLI members!
As our fiscal year comes to an end on June 30, we would like to thank Sue Lowder and Cathy Gullickson who will be stepping down from the WLI Steering Committee. Both ladies have been tremendous supporters of WLI and have given their time and talents to this important effort. Thanks Sue and Cathy for your support!

She also shared information on how WLI is helping these women in need thanks to your dollars.
