We had a blast at our June 26th annual Member Convening! We were delighted to welcome our new president, Svetlana Mostovsky, and extend heartfelt appreciation to outgoing president Marcela Hahn for her leadership. Rising Star honoree Mary McQuillen also joined us to toast a robust season of programming, thanks to our dedicated programming committee! See you at our next event in September and be sure to renew your membership to gain access to our new WID office hours this fall!

A farewell message from Marcela Hahn, outgoing president—we are so thankful for your direction of Women In Development, New York in the past year!
Thank you to the Women In Development, New York community for your friendship and support during my term as president. I am especially grateful to the Board members with whom I've served, and former Board members like Erin Dodd, Brooke Bryant, Jane F. Karlin, Ph.D., Carmel Napolitano and Poonam Prasad for their support. I am inspired by the plans of incoming president Svetlana Mostovsky, and excited to welcome new Board members Jaime Abbott, Kathleen Burke, Tiffany Ko Christopher, Alyssa Greengrass, and Leigh Taublib-Kiriat. WID will always be my professional home!

Congratulations to our 2024 Rising Star, Mary McQuillen, who was recognized at this year's Woman of Achievement Luncheon!
Last month I had the distinct honor of being presented with Women in Development, New York’s 2024 Rising Star Award 💫 As a volunteer for WID I have the privilege of connecting with so many incredible women in the field of philanthropy and was so humbled to be recognized in this way. Since I began my career in fundraising 10 years ago I’ve had the pleasure of working for Massachusetts General Hospital, The Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson's Research, and now NYU Langone Health. Every day I am inspired by my colleagues and the remarkable communities we serve. I look forward to seeing what the next 10 years has in store! Women In Development, New York

Thank you for your support, Lindauer! Looking forward to next year's Woman of Achievement Luncheon!
Lindauer's origins are rooted in a commitment to supporting women as they advance their careers in the nonprofit world. We are so pleased to continue to live out this foundational passion and to sponsor the 2024 Woman of Achievement Luncheon hosted by Women In Development, New York. The Lindauer team thoroughly enjoyed (can't you tell?) the opportunity to connect with so many luminaries in the field and to honor Barbara Leshinsky for her extraordinary career as a trailblazing development leader.
