Program: Six women who embody the three aspects of our theme, “Women Rising,” will highlight their experiences and views on each: Jade Leasure and Angela Baldwin on Education, Erin O’Neill and Jennifer Evans on Enlightenment, and Jordan Leasure and Sherita Ceasar on Empowerment.
Honorees: This year we recognize outstanding women chosen by participating LCWC organizations who have inspired and motivated women and girls to attain education, enlightenment, and/or empowerment. The honorees will be introduced and their brief biographies presented. More comprehensive biographies will be available on the Coalition’s website.
Ghostlight Readers: Students from Round Lake High School will perform an original arrangement of songs of empowerment to celebrate the occasion.
Scholarships: All fundraising of the Lake County Women’s Coalition, including this event’s auction, goes toward scholarships at the College of Lake County for women who are returning to school to enable them to pursue their chosen careers. This year’s three recipients will be introduced and will speak about their aspirations.
The Women's History Month celebration is important to the mission of the Lake County Women's Coalition as 100% of the proceeds continue to fund our scholarships for women, 30+, at College of Lake County. Donations are appreciated. You can DONATE ONLINE or if you prefer to send a check, please mail to Patti Rische, LCWC Treasurer, 1233 E. Oakwood, Fox Lake, IL 60020 .
