The sentiment of joy fills me as I type this email to you. The memories of last night still hang fresh and vivid in my mind, stirring a heart full of gratitude and unparalleled happiness within me.

Thank you for standing by my side and embodying the true spirit of unity that our team holds.
The magnificence of the Gala is something I believe we will all carry close to our hearts; it was simply breathtaking and elegant beyond words, much akin to every one of you.
I am consumed by the honor I feel, being fortunate enough to lead such an incredible group of individuals. Your support, effort, and talent do not go unseen, and I am truly humbled by your continual dedication.
Thank you once again for sharing the memorable evening with me and for consistently contributing to our collective success.
Women’s History Month
Women’s History Month is a dedicated month to reflect on the often-overlooked contributions of women to U.S. history. From Abigail Adams to Susan B. Anthony, Sojourner Truth to Rosa Parks, the timeline of women’s history milestones stretches back to the founding of the United States.
The actual celebration of Women’s History Month grew out of a weeklong celebration of women’s contributions to culture, history and society organized by the school district of Sonoma, California, in 1978. Presentations were given at dozens of schools, hundreds of students participated in a “Real Woman” essay contest and a parade was held in downtown Santa Rosa.
A few years later, the idea caught on within communities, school districts and organizations across the country. In 1980, President Jimmy Carter issued the first presidential proclamation declaring the week of March 8 as National Women’s History Week. The U.S. Congress followed suit the next year, passing a resolution establishing a national celebration. Six years later, the National Women’s History Project successfully petitioned Congress to expand the event to the entire month of March.
