The YWCA hosted its Third Annual Empowering Women Luncheon on Tuesday, October 6, at the Rochester Riverside Convention Center, and as an Encouraging Sponsor, Mirror Show Management again participated in the event and showed our support for this wonderful organization. And that’s not all: we’re so proud that our very own Sarah Morehouse designed the logo that’s featured on the front of this year’s invitation. Check it out on the attached PDF!

Attending the luncheon not only benefited the YWCA, but also provided guests with the opportunity to listen to keynote speaker Ursula Burns – the CEO of Xerox Corporation and one of the country’s most powerful women – as she spoke about ‘Finding Your Way to Success.’ Her personal success story began when she was a summer intern at Xerox in 1980, and she continues her journey with the Fortune 500 company as its second female CEO.

This year, more than ever before, showing support for the YWCA is of vital importance. We have all been impacted by the current economic situation, but the effect that it has on the women and children that the YWCA serves – who already live on the edge of poverty – is profound. Over 1,000 women and children in the Rochester community benefit from the housing and support services that the YWCA provides each year, and without the support of generous companies like MSM, this would not be possible.
