Thank you for joining us!
Thank you for sharing the torch with us at the 28th womenwinning Annual Luncheon. As Event Co Chairs Emily Anne Tuttle and Missy Thompson warned us, it is easy to look at the numbers in the room, feel the energy and think our work is done. But our work has only just begun.
Here are five ways to stay involved:
1. Vote in the Primary elections on August 10th!
2. Read about our supported candidates on womenwinning.org and get involved on a campaign – they need anyone and everyone from stuffing envelopes to advising on policy.
3. Send a check to a candidate. Money equals viability.
4. Go tell five women today about the candidates you heard today.
5. Run for office. We know that when women run women win. There are just not enough women running. This is your invitation to run!
