The Saddle River Valley Junior Woman's Club
President’s Message
November 2011 In my second year as President, I rededicate myself to creating a rewarding and successful year for our club and the charities we will work with. We all should look within and rededicate ourselves so we can become a stronger group and continue to have a meaningful impact on those who need our services.
We all lead busy, full lives yet we do whatever is necessary to dedicate the time and effort that makes such a difference in the lives of others. Together we can fulfill our visions of making a difference & giving back.
The community & charitable outreach programs and fundraising events that we institute will allow us to accomplish this. If everyone does a little, no one has to do a lot & we can achieve great things.
I wish all of us success. “To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children...to leave the world a better place...to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded.”
April/May 2011
As our fiscal year comes to a close, we can look back and feel fortunate about the many ways we were able to touch those in need. Our club is made of a group of very dynamic women that make these projects happen. Thank YOU for being involved and donating your valuable time to those less fortunate.
