Women Business Owners of Montgomery County: Networking Lunch (21 Jun 2012)

Thu, 21 Jun 2012 15:30:00 GMT

Summer is here. It is time for lunch and the CREW is coming!!! Joining us for our June Luncheon is CREW Maryland Suburban, one of 74 chapters that make up CREW Network. If you have not heard of CREW Network (short for Commercial Real Estate Women) it is the industry's premier business networking organization dedicated to influencing the success of the commercial real estate industry by advancing the achievements of women. Please come out to meet the wonderful members of this great organization!”

Bring lots of cards; however, be prepared to get to know people before giving them out. Everyone should try to come out with at least one new connection and a coffee date in the works.

For our Spotlight Non-Profit, we will help CREW out this month as they collect gift cards for A Wider Circle.

At our June luncheon, we will be collecting gift card donations for the local non-profit organization, A Wider Circle who is looking for gift cards to provide to the families they support. They can be in any increments (preferably $10-$25) and suggested stores are as follows: Target, Safeway, Giant, CVS, and Kohl’s. In addition, they are always in need of Metro fare cards. If you are able to pick up a gift card for A Wider Circle, please bring it to our June luncheon event.

A Wider Circle provides basic need items to families transitioning out of shelters or simply living without life’s necessities. They furnish the homes of more than 1,000 children and adults every month, all free of charge. They also go into low-income schools and shelters to lead educational workshops on topics ranging from healthy self-esteem and stress management to resume writing and financial planning.

If you have any questions or would like any additional information, please contact Heather Dlhopolsky at Linowes and Blocher LLP (301-961-5270 or hdlhopolsky@linowes-law.com ).
