Honoring 2023 Women of Achievement
Twelve Thursday Morning Club members attended the 129th Annual Convention of the New Jersey Federation of Women’s Clubs (NJSFWC) in Atlantic City on May 1-3. They and the other 300+ members of women’s clubs throughout NJ celebrated the recognition of five New Jersey Women of Achievement, who were honored for their dedicated service to NJ communities, including addressing health disparities in underserved communities, advancing women in STEAM, ending homelessness, and integrating open space for environmental benefit. Inspiring presentations were given by the State President, Shirley Holly, and the General Federation International President, Debra Strahanoski, highlighting the NJ members’ 17,000 service projects and over 300,000 volunteer hours annually that help communities throughout the state.
