The Third Annual Women’s Education & Leadership Institute
Forum will bring together business and community leaders to support
the Women’s Education & Leadership Institute (WELI). We invite you to
join us in promoting the economic prosperity of women in the Salinas
Valley through higher education. This important event will fund the WELI
program endowment, ensuring this invaluable support is available to the
women of this community for generations to come.
Featuring: Panel discussion with Lorri Koster, CEO of Mann Packing
Company, and Devry Boughner Vorwerk, Senior Policy Advisor at Akin
Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld, LLP, and moderator Adrienne Laurent, Chief
Strategic Communications Officer, Salinas Valley Memorial Healthcare
System
Significance: Statistics support that a college-educated woman is more
likely to become financially self-sufficient and pursue a meaningful
career. The education level of a mother is a strong indicator of the success
her daughters and sons will have as adults. WELI provides the 4 keys:
resources, education, social support and mentorship.
When: Thursday, September 29, 2016 ~ 5:30 -8:30 p.m.
Where: Tehàma Golf Club, 25000 Via Malpaso, Carmel, CA 93923 How: Support the important work of the WELI program by sponsoring
and attending the Women’s Education and Leadership Institute Forum.
Both sponsorship opportunities and individual tickets are available.
Background: Volunteer leaders identified a significant need to support
women in their pursuit of an education and career. Two lead gifts
through IMPOWER and Bruce Taylor of the Taylor family helped launch
the program. The WELI program is in its fifth year. This summer, our
150th student will graduate from the comprehensive program that
combines a scholarship award of up to $2,000, one-year of mentorship,
and participation in a three-day program focused on leadership and life
skills workshops.

access to food, which she believes is a basic human
right.
