This year’s Women Helping Women Fund luncheon, featuring country music icon and social advocate Naomi Judd, raised $266,000.
A diverse crowd of nearly 1,700, ranging from a university president to sponsored residents of a local shelter attended the May 16 luncheon at the Spokane Convention Center. Their generosity surpassed a goal of $250,000 and brought in $24,000 more than the previous year.
The luncheon proceeds funded grants awarded to 22 local programs designed to meet the needs of the most vulnerable women and children in the Spokane area.
