International Women's Day Luncheon

The Center for Global Engagement, Candles Holocaust Museum and Education Center and Sodexo would like to extend an invitation to a luncheon in honor of International Women's Day.  Please join for soup and salad buffet, silent auction and keynote address. We are excited that Eva Kor will deliver the keynote address at the event, as she truly embodies the theme for International Women's Day which is Be Bold for Change. Her message of overcoming prejudice and hatred is especially timely.
