The Women's Initiative is celebrating 20 years of women's philanthropy, leadership, and empowerment of adolescent girls in Central Massachusetts. TWENTY YEARS AGO, when Lois Green and Meridith Wesby gathered with women leaders in Lois' living room, no one could have predicted the impact their vision would have on women and girls in our community. Please join us as we celebrate their legacy and our future.
