Yesterday, I had the great pleasure of meeting with Rep. Susan Davis, Congresswoman from California’s 53rd District. The event was sponsored by the Women’s Equity Council of the United Nations Association of San Diego. After giving a great speech about the role of woman in Congress and her latest trip to Afghanistan, I was able to speak with her briefly about ONE and the work we do.
not only was she gracious while hearing about our cause but the congresswoman was very engaged. The outcome was better than I could have expected! Not only did I get a green light to contact her during summer recess, Congresswoman Davis accepted and wore the ONE wristband. Thank you Congresswoman! And special thanks to Cynthia Kowalski for inviting ONE to be there.
