HONORARY CHAIR, SALLY B. THORNTON
The Foundation for Women was started in 1997 by Deborah Lindholm with a goal of eliminating poverty with a good dose of microcredit. With this in mind, guests gathered March 9th, 2008 at the lovely ocean view home of Patricia and Bud Lynch's in La Jolla.
It was a lovely afternoon to peruse artist works, enjoy a light buffet, and a glass of wine.
All for a great cause as noted by Deborah Lindholm who also serves as the Executive Director. "Together as a community we are truly changing the world. I am very grateful and deeply thankful for each and every one of you who has been a part of this miracle. I invite you to stay connected and continue to be part of our grassroots movement to eliminate global poverty through microcredit, to be the voice for so many women whose voices are not heard – and to do all of that with joy and celebration of our special connection and community."
Roseanne Perrone agreed and added this regarding the purpose of the day's event. "Through the generous efforts of Dottie Stanley and the local Allied Artists Association, the Art for a Cause fundraiser was held to support the Foundation for Women whose mission is to eliminate global poverty through microcredit. Sally B. Thornton was the Honorary Chair for this event where local artists sold their work and donated a portion of their proceeds to help the Foundation for Women eliminate global poverty. The Foundation is exceptionally grateful to Dottie and David Stanley, Sally B. Thornton, and Bud and Pat Lynch who generously donated their home for the event, because each of these individuals' effort allowed the Foundation to raise $9000 to continue their mission."
Among those supporting this important cause were Karina Lion and Thom Tullis, Mary Walker, Carol Karlovich, Jeanne Jones, Kathryn Fishback, Phyliss Parrish, Reena Horowitz, Patti Cooprider, and Dottie and Dave Stanley.
Contributing artist Dottie Stanley summed up the day.“The afternoon was filled with wonderful art, opera music, beautiful displayed jewelry and a convivial atmosphere was enjoyed by all who attended.”
