International Women’s Day is celebrated on Tuesday 8th March 2016. For the past two years, The Canowindra Phoenix has sponsored and promoted a luncheon for International Women’s Day.
Last year we had two guest speakers, Tamara James from Pulse HR and Ailsa Pottie, who is the sister of Elizabeth Hamlin of the Hamlin Fistula Ethiopia Hospital in Ethiopia. We were able to send a cheque for $502.00 to the Hamlin Fistula Ethiopia Hospital from last year’s fundraising which is a great result and we need your help to do this again.
In 2016 we will be holding a similar type luncheon on Thursday 10th March at the Canowindra Bowling Club. Our Guest Speaker for this year is Tara Scott who is an Ambassador for One Girl, who are committed to educating 1 million girls across Africa by 2020. There will be a short talk and presentation by Tara on the day and the proceeds raised from the event will go towards supporting
this charity.
The Deli Lama will be catering with a 2 course lunch and there will be a fashion parade by Saffi as well as lots of goodies to giveaway with raffles and lucky door prizes to be won so it’s a great excuse to get the ladies together for a catch up. Put the 10th of March in your diaries and gather the girls
for a fun event supporting and celebrating women and our achievements, you won’t want to miss it.
