IWD Preparations Continue

We are now just two weeks away from our big event at SVPD-ALC, our first ever observation of International Women's Day (IWD).

We have selected our six student speakers who are presently active researching and writing their topics...and preparing the speeches.

The six (plus their topics) are as follows: L-R Standing, Dwana (Women's Suffrage), Jennie (Sacagawea), Eliria (Women's Education in Afghanistan); L-R Seated, Ruby (Sojourner Truth), Sr. Silvia (Mother Teresa), Linda (Joan of Arc).

Billy Edwards, a volunteer at SVDP-ALC, will also come and speak; and we may have a guest speaker too. If you can't come, don't worry, you can read all about it right here on our blog. There will be full coverage! IWD at SVDP-ALC will be Thursday, March 5th.
