Women’s Fund Goes Resilient

In our LCAHouston special feature on Resilient Houston, we were delighted to feature the Women’s Fund and their upcoming 10th Annual Rockin’ Resiliency Luncheon. Our guests, Luncheon Chair Christine Johnson and Executive Director Linda Rhodes, shared with us everything that goes into hosting a virtual event online for guests to celebrate “at a distance.”

The Women’s Fund for Health Education and Resiliency is a nonprofit that provides Houston area women and girls with the tools needed to be advocates for their health and the skills necessary to be resilient.

The Women’s Fund, along with Co-Chairs Christine and Steve Johnson, will celebrate girls and women who participate in The Women’s Fund education classes and programs during this virtual event which will take place on Sunday, November 1, 2020, at 12:30 p.m. The luncheon will feature entertainment by American Idol Season 12 Finalist Vincent Powell, and President of H-E-B Food/Drug Store Scott McClelland will serve as the keynote speaker.

An education session for women and girls alike will focus on trending topics. Guests will be able to participate in the online silent auction and baubles and bubbles champagne raffle for a chance to win a $5,000 gift card.

The Women’s Fund will recognize Edna Meyer-Nelson as the recipient of the Sue Trammell Whitfield Award for Resiliency, and will also honor Kathleen Schmeler M.D. with The John P. McGovern Foundation “Champion in Women’s Health and Wellness” Award.

Linda and Christine personally invited everyone to support the cause, which helps adolescent girls and women lead happier, healthier, and more resilient lives, by participating in The Women’s Fund Rockin’ Resiliency Luncheon.
