New York Women’s Agenda Star Breakfast ~Words with Michelle~

I am excited to announce that Wendy has been selected to be honored at this year’s New York Women’s Agenda Star Breakfast as a Galaxy Awardee representing the Women’s Jewelry Association. The Breakfast will be held on December 9th at the New York Hilton. Approximately 1,000 people attend this annual event, starting with a full breakfast at 7:15am. If you would like to join us at what is always a powerful and lively event, please let us know so we can include you at a table with other friends. Tickets are $85.00 (NYWA members) and $95.00 (non-member). For full details about the event and to purchase tickets, you can visit www.nywa.org, contact the Benefit Office at 212-843-1706 or by email at nywa@hgnyc.com. Be sure to let the Benefit Office know you are with our group so they can be sure to seat everyone together.


The Women’s Jewelry Association is proud to be a member of the New York Women’s Agenda, which is a not-for-profit coalition of women professionals, community activists, and over 50 women’s organizations working to shape public policy on behalf of women and families in New York, and we hope you will join us for this great event which is NYWA’s major fundraising event of the year.


This year’s Star Breakfast is especially exciting because, in addition to a nice roster of Galaxy Awardees, Stars, Rising Stars and an Honorable MEN-tion, they are doing a very special tribute to NYWA founder Elinor Guggenheimer, who recently passed away. To top it off, NYWA is bestowing the inaugural Elinor Guggenheimer Lifetime Achievement Award to the legendary Barbara Walters. Emcees for the Breakfast include award-winning journalist Roz Abrams and author and television personality Emme Aronson. The Honorable Michael L. Bloomberg will be on hand to present the award to Miss Walters, and New York State’s First Lady Michelle Paterson will be there to address the audience.


This year’s NYWA theme is especially noteworthy - Pass It On! - Celebrating Women, Generation to Generation – as it was chosen to reflect the vital nature of the intergenerational connections that make our world, and our lives, a better place, and to celebrate the life-changing power of a helping hand.


Best Wishes,
Michelle
