WIB-San Francisco Bay Area: Holiday Party

Our holiday party on December 11 at Pinstripes San Mateo was a joyful celebration where members and guests came together to socialize, reflect on accomplishments, and savor delicious food. The event was a wonderful way to embrace the holiday season in a warm and friendly atmosphere. We are grateful to Calico Life Sciences and Clinovo for generously sponsoring this year’s festivities. During the evening, we had the privilege of honoring Deborah Ovadia (Debbie) and Toby Freedman for their remarkable 10-year anniversaries as mentors in our MAPS program. Their exceptional leadership and volunteerism have positively impacted countless women.

We also honored Asta Dauksa and Astrid Heim with the Volunteer Recognition Award for their outstanding dedication and unwavering support. We also expressed our gratitude to Lee Asplund for her exceptional service as co-chair of our chapter. We introduced our newly appointed vice chair, whose contributions will be publicly recognized early next year. It was a joyous occasion filled with gratitude, connection, and celebration!
