During this Thanksgiving time, we have so many reasons to be grateful at Helping Our Women. We've held successful celebrations marking 30 years of service to women on the Outer Cape, raised vital funds, our kind volunteers show up again and again to keep the HOW wheels moving, and of course, the impact on the lives of the 310+ women and households we serve is a continual reminder that our action is with meaning purpose.

I'm grateful to you and all the members of our HOW community - a true circle of support. And, we have a new member to introduce to you - Cathy McDonough - our new Client Services Manager. You can read more about Cathy below.

I'm grateful for the FUN night we had celebrating HOW's 30th Birthday in early October. Click here to watch the video we showed at our 30th Birthday Bash to hear about HOW's impact in the lives of our members and volunteers. We couldn't have pulled off this monumental birthday party without the support of our sponsors listed below.

When you have a choice, please remember to patronize these businesses and thank the individuals who supported our big day. Also, you'll want to find the link below to check out the Birthday Bash Photo gallery for great shots of some of the Outer Cape's finest cutting a rug to 90s tunes!

I'm grateful to you for continuing to show up for Helping Our Women. You read our community update emails, attend our events, make contributions, volunteer and some do the hardest thing sometimes which is show up with vulnerability and ask for help. I wish you a peaceful holiday season. I hope you also find gratitude for the little things and take care of yourself during this busy season. Leading with Love, Gwynne
