2020 FASHION SHOW and ANNUAL LUNCHEON – Cancellation Notice

Over the past several days, the Board of Directors of Latin Women’s Initiative (LWI) have been working diligently to determine what course of action is in the best interest to you, our partner beneficiaries and our organization during this unprecedented time.

We have made the difficult decision to cancel the 2020 LWI Fashion Show + Luncheon that was scheduled for May 1, 2020. From the bottom of our hearts, we apologize for any inconvenience and appreciate your understanding, as we keep the health and well-being of our community at the forefront of our decisions. We hope you will join us for the 2021 Fashion Show + Luncheon that is scheduled for Friday, May 7, 2021.

Despite these rapidly changing times, our mission remains the same: to make a difference in the lives of Latin women and their children.
