On May 11, WBFN will hold its Annual Meeting, and we encourage our members in the DC area to join us to exercise the right to vote. For those members who will not be able to participate, the option to cast votes electronically will be available. The Annual Meeting has three main objectives: (i) reporting back on the developments of the past year, (ii) any resolutions requiring voting by members; and (iii) voting for the proposed slate for Executive and Nominating Committees for the next fiscal year.
On May 18, we host our Annual Dinner in the MC Atrium, with a special theme—our 45th anniversary. We will be celebrating (fine food and live music!) our recent achievements with you, our members, WBFN partners, our volunteers, and their spouses and partners.
Did you know that our organization began with the initiative of spouses in 1972 to support each other, that it was then called WIVES, and that spouses were not allowed to work? Look out for our 45th Anniversary booklet later this month to learn more about our origins and how far we have come in 45 years.
We cordially invite you to attend the Annual Dinner by contacting the WBFN offices.
With warmest regards,
Gulira and Loubna
