MAKING A DIFFERENCE LUNCHEON

CCFWG
 

Kitchen Table Award – Nominations Now Closed 

Our annual Kitchen Table Award recognizes an outstanding Chester County woman who has made substantive contributions through service and/or philanthropy to improve the lives of women and girls in our county through her own time, talents or resources. The award was established in 2011 to honor a Chester County woman whose accomplishments have made a significant difference for women and girls living in our county. Its name celebrates the genesis of CCFWG: the many conversations held around kitchen and coffee tables that led to the formation of the organization.

The 2021 Kitchen Table Award will be presented to Mary Lou Sterge, a longtime and devoted advocate for women and girls, on Friday, May 7th at CCFWG’s 16th Annual Making a Difference Luncheon at the Desmond Hotel and Conference Center in Malvern. This year’s Luncheon will be a celebration of our 25th Anniversary with a theme of “Silver and Bold,” and will be held outdoors, in person, with all social distancing protocols and COVID-19 precautions in place. There will also be a virtual option for attendees. Please stay tuned for registration and event details to come.
