[Viva] March 22nd VIVA MEETING 3:00 p.m.

Wed Mar 20 14:05:24 PDT 2013

Hello All, 
Sorry to say I won't be attending the Poz Gathering this year and since I won't be coming to the mainland, I also won't be attending the ViVA AGM on friday. 

Do know I will be thinking of you all and know you will have an inspiring, effective and up lifting meeting which will help direct ViVA's next year. 

I echo Funke's sentiment in asking you all to bring your ideas to the table. I also ask you all to consider becoming more involved, maybe with the working group or some other way. Regardless of how many wonderful ideas and plans we come up with, what we are able to achieve will depend on how many of us are willing to make it happen. 

At present the working group is a fairly small but effective group. As ViVA grows and changes, so does the necessary woman power to achieve our goals. There are many ways to be involved, some will require more commitment, some less, but all necessary. I encourage any and all of you who might be thinking of being more actively involved in ViVA to really consider it. We need all participation from reading and posting on listserv to being part if the working group and everything in between. 

Be well ViVA Women and have a wonderful meeting. Ally
