SUPPORT OUR MISSION

SPECIAL THANKS TO OUR HOST
St. Katharine of Siena Parish
for providing our performance, rehearsal and event space.
We love it here! And are so grateful for your community-minded parish.

THANK YOU FOR SUPPORTING OUR OUTREACH PARTNER, WOMEN’S RESOURCE CENTER!

WRC’s mission is to assist women and girls to successfully navigate life transitions and to inspire others to do the same. By providing resources, tools and support for today, we provide hope for tomorrow.

The Women’s Resource Center (WRC) began in 1975 when five women placed an ad in The Suburban and Wayne Times calling for a meeting on women’s issues. Forty-five women attended the initial meeting, indicating a strong demand for an organization that was dedicated to addressing the needs of women. Since that time, WRC has worked to help women utilize the educational, employment and financial opportunities made available to them through Title IX and similar legislation to create better lives for themselves and their children.

A portion of our proceeds from this concert will be donated to support the excellent work of WRC!
