Give in Support of YWCA Spokane

 

 

Thank you for joining us for a Women of Avista Gathering

Pat Gorton and I were inspired to gather a group of Avista women to reconnect, remember those who helped us in our careers, and to celebrate progress in promoting women leaders. We'll be joined by Heather Rosentrater to get her perspective as the first woman in the role of President and COO of Avista Corporation on the future of female leadership.

We've also invited Jeanette Hauck, YWCA CEO, to share about the current challenges women are facing. Additionally, we want to add purpose to our gathering by paying it forward and raising funds for YWCA's Women's Opportunity Center and the critical work they do to help women achieve their potential.

- Mary Cameron

PS: Pat and I are so interested to hear and celebrate the Avista women who made a difference in your career. Please share their names and stories here.
