"We hope you enjoy these photos from our Grant Awards Celebration event last month. Our celebration was a grand success thanks to you! We were blown away by Shannon Spencer's wise words and uplifting message, and the speeches from the amazing 2024 grant recipients. Spending an evening with powerful, bright, kind-spirited women was energizing and empowering. Together, we are taking action, inspiring hope and possibility, and strengthening Western North Carolina."  ~ Women for Women, An Initiative of the Community Foundation of Western North Carolina
