Last night, we hosted our inaugural Leading with Impact program, celebrating four remarkable women whose leadership, resilience, and dedication are making a difference in our community.

Congratulations again to our 2026 honorees:
✨ Christina Wagoner, Chester County United Way – Impact on the Community
✨ Annie Kelly, Unwined – Overcoming a Unique Challenge
✨ Allison Owen, Turks Head Wines – Radical Career Change
✨ Andrea Pettine, Pettine Law Offices, LLC – Success in a Male-Dominated Career

During an inspiring panel discussion, our honorees shared personal stories of perseverance, taking risks, building meaningful connections, and redefining success throughout their careers. Their insights reminded us that leadership often begins with showing up, embracing change, supporting others, and having the courage to take the next step.

A special thank you to Amanda Capoferri of Rycor HVAC for sponsoring the program and making her Greater West Chester Chamber moderator debut!

We are also incredibly grateful to our sponsors for helping make this event possible: Rycor HVAC, Lifemed Institute, Lauren M.
