If you wish to renew your membership before our membership brunch on October 30, you will find forms in TWOQC’s slot in the hallway of the clubhouse as well as on the website at womenqc.com

• There is Word document form on the website that gives you the opportunity to type in the information. This makes it much easier for the membership and Internet team to get the email address right the first time.
• There is also a block on the membership form asking if you have any special talents/experience (e.g., writing, fund-raising, decorating). That information will help us if we ever need special help for one of our projects. [… Membership form]

September TWOQC Program – YOTO

A big thank you to Daniel Armenta from YOTO for sharing about this wonderful program and providing answers to questions that our members had.

The outpouring of support for YOTO and its’ students continues to amaze us. Thank you to every member of TWOQC who has given time, items, and even cash in support of recent TWOQC projects to support YOTO. Daniel gave much praise to TWOQC for the support we provide all year long. He said our organization is highly respected within their office and they use us as an example to other groups. Daniel was especially complimentary of the way we “think outside the box” and come up with creative ideas how to support YOTO. Compliments of our club photographer, Eileen Sykora, the photos from Monday’s program may be found HERE.

Stay tuned!  More excitement is coming!!

Homeless & Hospitalized Veterans

So many thanks to all who brought items for the homeless and hospitalized veterans to the program Monday evening. Big thanks to Laura Colbert for delivering the items to the VA.
