Thank you to everyone who joined us for our 16th annual Celebrating Women, Transforming Lives (CWTL) spring luncheon. We came together to celebrate the women in our community who are transforming lives for the better, and we made a real impact.

Guests were treated to an elegant luncheon experience at the beautiful Danada House and experienced an atmosphere filled with inspiration, connection, and joy as we celebrated the achievements of some incredible women. 

This year, we honored two women who make an incredible impact on our community:

Dr. Amy Stoeffler, an OB/GYN and Philanthropist, will receive the Transforming Lives Award.
Kiara Goodwin, a Bridge Graduate, will receive the Lives Transformed Award.
