Thank you to everyone who joined us at our Annual Dinner last night and helped make it such a meaningful and memorable evening. I’m especially grateful to our Special Events Committee for bringing the vision to life and delivering another exceptional event. Thank you to my amazing Board for your hard work and profound accomplishments this year.

Thank you to our executive director NaDege DeMaitre and financial director Kimberly Benn for being the backbone of this organization.

Serving as GAWL President has been the honor of a lifetime. I hope that this year deepened your connection to GAWL’s rich history and strengthened what it means to be part of this remarkable community.

I’m proud of what we’ve built together and confident in the legacy that will continue to move us forward. I am turning over the role to a capable, committed and fierce advocate Kana Caplan. She will do an amazing job leading GAWL.

This is your 94th President of GAWL, signing off.
