Dear WANIGP Members,

Thank you for joining us at last night’s holiday event! Your presence made the evening truly special, and it was wonderful to celebrate the season together as a community.
We hope you enjoyed the chance to connect, share laughter, and create memories with fellow members. Events like these remind us how strong and vibrant our chapter is when we come together.

As the year draws to a close, I find myself reflecting on the incredible journey and I can hardly believe I’ve completed two years as your Chapter President. It’s been a time of growth, connection, and
meaningful progress, and I’m deeply grateful to all the member volunteers who’ve contributed your time, energy, and heart to our chapter.
