Well, apparently the call has been heard! In response to a 2 day sell out, MORE has pushed the envelope and added 10 more women to the conference. What an amazing opportunity! I am getting the information and am getting more excited about this with every email.
As if speakers like Wolf Blitzer and Gwen Ifill weren't great enough, now I find that Richard Gere (yes, girls, THE Richard Gere) is being given a Humanitarian Award during the conference. My friend Marsha says she is goingt to be so jealous if I actually get to meet him! LOL Hey, I'm impressed to be in the same town.
Mostly, I'm looking forward to connecting with 49 other women from around the country who have answered Lesley Jane's call. Not to mention all the other women - and men - who are coming to the CARE event to lobby our congressional reps.
The message is clear. The women of the world need our help and this rich and generous country of ours must join the rest of the world and take a lead in breaking the cycle of poverty, hunger and abuse of the world's women.
I'm so there!
