Why Our Members are in GLOW

"It is important to me to feel that I am connected to and contributing to the community that I live in. I am also very grateful for what I have in my life and I want to share it with others." Rita Brafford

"Amazing things happen when people pool their resources for the better good of the community." I was impressed with the members of Giving Ladies of Watertown and knew that in giving a little of my time and resources that I would receive so much more in friendships, joy and laughter." Jane Brotski

"I have been blessed with a life where my every need is met. For this reason it is not only my desire, but also I believe my responsibility, to help others less fortunate. Being part of Giving Ladies of Watertown affords me the opportunity to join forces with a host of amazing women, from various walks of life, to offer our cumulative gifts, time and talents to others who need help. Whether it's to meet an immediate need, a short or long term goal, or simply to lend a helping hand, it's all good!" Julie Richart

"I truly believe that we are here on Earth to learn about love, tolerance and acceptance of others; in my mind part of this learning comes through giving. GLOW is one way for me to make sure that I give before I leave. Kelly Schwgel

"My goal as a GLOW member is to help my community in any way I can and to get to know more women in the Watertown area. I am so excited to be a part of a young group that is dedicated to achieving the same goals that I love." Belinda Kwapil

"I am so excited to be a part of this special group. Giving back and making a difference in our community in anyway we possibly can is such a honor to be a part of." Jill Hiller
