SAVE THE DATES: WILPF Gathering – Wednesday, August 16 and Thursday, August 17
by Dianne Blais
WILPF US Secretary
Virtual meetings, where all members may attend from the comfort of their home, can be a boon and great tool for a national organization like WILPF US. You can participate and learn more about WILPF and your areas of interest.
The last totally virtual WILPF US Congress (out of necessity, due to the pandemic) was a great success! In 2024, our Congress is expected to be in-person — possibly with virtual options. Then, the next year, the 2025 WILPF international Congress will take place.
That leaves this summer as the perfect time for our first virtual Gathering: Wednesday and Thursday evenings, August 16 and 17, starting at 5 pm PT/ 6 pm MT/ 7 pm CT/ 8 pm ET and ending two hours later.
Our WILPF US "Gathering" is for all WILPF US members.
At the Gathering, you will have a chance to hear from the WILPF US Board, our national staff members, the issue committee chairs, and some branch leaders — and you’ll be able to ask them questions.
On both Wednesday and Thursday there will be breakout rooms before and after each session. On Wednesday and before the Thursday meeting one can join a small group for face-to-face interactions. The breakout rooms after the meeting on Thursday will be with the Issue Committee chairs and can go on as long as the group desires.
Mark your calendars now! And watch for an eAlert in mid-August for the agenda and event time details.
Two Options for ‘Official’ Branch Logos
by Dianne Blais
WILPF US Secretary
WILPF can improve recognition for our organizational and further promote WILPF by using consistent logos. And now the national board has approved two logo options for branches to use, if they wish – designated, here, as #1 and #4.
Contact me at Secretary@wilpfus.org with the branch name and logo selection (by number) and we will arrange for you to get your branch logo.
