Save the Dates! International Women's WEEK 3/2-3/6

Mark your calendars for March 2nd – March 6th for International Women's WEEK! CG is hosting a celebration each day in preparation for International Women's Day (IWD) on Sunday, March 8th. This year’s theme, “Give to Gain,” encourages a mindset of generosity and collaboration.

I have attached a flyer for the activities that will be happening throughout IWD Week. One of the activities is BINGO! What Midwesterner doesn’t like Bingo?! If you participate in each daily activity and blackout your Bingo card, you’ll be entered into a drawing where 3 lucky winners will each win a $100 gift card to their favorite women owned business!

In the spirit of giving, we are excited to partner with Dress for Success Twin Cities in support of International Women’s Day by hosting a clothing drive. Dress for Success is a worldwide organization with locations throughout the nation and across the globe. Their mission is to empower women to achieve economic independence by providing professional attire, career development tools, and a supportive network to help them thrive in work and in life. Donations of new or gently used professional clothing and accessories help women feel confident as they enter or re-enter the workforce.

We will be accepting clothing donations during IWD week and throughout the entire month at some of our Minnesota locations: Eden Prairie, Monticello, and Waite Park.

How you can participate:

• Donate professional clothing items at the EP, Monticello, or Waite Park offices • Purchase items from the Dress for Success Twin Cities Wishlist and have them shipped directly • Organize a clothing drive at your own office location

A donation box will be available in the lobby of the EP office. Donations from Monticello and Waite Park will be collected and brought to EP at the end of the drive.

Please see the attached document for donation guidelines and requirements. If you have questions or need drop-off details, contact Amanda Vagle or Betsy Galvan.

Thank you for helping us support this meaningful mission.

And thank you for participating in IWD Week! We’re excited to celebrate with you!
