About this event
MCC women, you are invited to attend Our Turn: A Conversation for Women. This group meets every other Thursday alternating between morning and afternoon times. Locations and topics will change each time. Joan Patterson and Lois Libby Juster host on the topic of "Women as Philanthropists, Volunteers and Change Agents." The word “philanthropy” comes from the Greeks and means “a love for humanity.” Modern definitions include the concept of voluntary giving by an individual or group to promote the common good and improve the quality of life. Broadly defined, giving includes not only dollars, but also time, skills, and talents. As we have come to know the incredible women in MCC, their desire to promote the common good and improve humanity is apparent in many diverse ways. This gathering will provide an opportunity for us to share the ways we have found to express our “love for humanity,” and perhaps stimulate new ideas and venues for us to be change agents in promoting the common good. Sometimes, our good intentions encounter challenges and roadblocks, and that is “grist for the mill” in this discussion also.
