Thank you to all who attended our International Women’s Day Brunch

We are still glowing from the energy at our International Women’s Day Networking Brunch! On March 8th, over 45 incredible individuals gathered at the Lighthouse Tavern in New Bedford to celebrate, connect, and strengthen our community.

The Lighthouse Tavern provided more than just delicious food, their warm and welcoming atmosphere set the perfect stage for a morning of meaningful conversation. Beyond building and strengthening lasting connections, the brunch was a vital fundraiser, helping us secure the resources needed to continue our essential programs and services.

We were honored to hear powerful addresses from Gail Fortes and Shai Spinola-Ramos, whose words inspired everyone in the room to continue fostering a supportive community for all.

Success like this is only possible through the generosity of our partners and community members. We would like to extend a huge thank you to:
