Women's Chorus Helps Women in Poverty
The First Unitarian Universalist Church of San Diego Women’s Chorus will perform a “Stronger Together” concert to benefit Women’s Empowerment International (WE). There will be an opportunity to meet some of WE’s clients and purchase some of their unique and interesting products. A one-hour concert will be performed without intermission at 7 PM, followed by an elegant wine and dessert reception, with another opportunity to meet the WE women and purchase their products. Women’s Empowerment International (WE) is a local non-profit organization founded by Win Cox and Leigh Fenly of San Diego in 2003. The mission of WE is to give women the tools they need to work their way out of poverty. In partnership with nonprofit microfinance organizations, WE provides small, repayable business loans and services for women and supports other poverty-reduction strategies in places where WE can make a difference. WE’s commitment is to education, to mutual communication, and to furthering the worldwide effort to alleviate poverty.
