Empowering Women Through Unity Series
Sisters and Friends. Wives and Neighbors. Wives and Mothers. The list goes on, yet the women in our lives are much greater than these titles could ever imply. They love us, inspire us, nurture us, and guide us in helping ourselves.
Each of us has a heroine in her life - and often more than one. The HMCTE Women's Circle brings these righteous women's stories to the fore and celebrates them. Together we have the unique opportunity to learn about the incredible work women are doing here in our communities and around the world. Then we work to support and amplify those good deeds wherever we can. Individually we are one drop, but together we are an ocean of numerous possibilities.
Join us, as our Women's Circle embarks on a movement to grow a sisterhood for a better tomorrow. Our wisdom, power and commitment are needed now more than ever before.
"Human greatness does not lay in wealth and power but in character and goodness"
