Thank You! Gracias!  For A Magical Mujeres de Paz Evening

Dear Friends,

What a wonderful evening we shared on April 5th at the Mujeres de Paz Annual Awards Dinner!

Together, we reminisced, we celebrated, and we even shed a few tears as we listened to stories of love, survival, courage and resilience - from our honorees, presenters and so many others.

We are posting images from the evening on our Facebook page - and in our gallery on the website. Be sure to stop by Facebook and give us a thumbs up! Thank you for your support, your partnerships, your trust.  We treasure it all.

In gratitude,

Barbara Kappos, Executive Director
& the ELAWC Board of Directors and Staff
