President’s Message
In this newsletter, you’ll find exciting glimpses of new initiatives, an expanded vision, and a sense of anticipation for what’s to come in 2025. Nevada Women’s Fund has just completed a comprehensive three-year strategic plan, and our dedicated Board of Directors and staff have been working diligently over the summer to prepare for what promises to be a Dynamic 4th quarter and year ahead.
On page two we highlight our strategic new partnerships with leaders in the trades industry and inspiring stories of women making significant strides in various trades. I encourage you to check out an article I wrote on LinkedIn, now available on our website under "News and Ila’s Insights," which discusses the critical importance of promoting careers for women in trades. Page four features our upcoming events designed to celebrate women’s achievements and create opportunities for their advancement. I hope you are able to join us!
On the back page, we express our gratitude to the remarkable women leaders in Douglas County who gathered for lunch in June to learn about Nevada Women’s Fund’s mission and show their support. Their commitment helps ensure that women in rural Nevada have access to the same resources and opportunities as those in urban areas.
My summer highlight was distributing $500,000 in academic scholarships to 134
local women! I cherish witnessing their growth, hearing their stories, celebrating
their achievements and sharing in the joy with their proud families. Each moment
of support and encouragement, we offer empowers them on their journey.
Your ongoing support is vital to our mission. Thank you for being such an integral part of our efforts.
