"On behalf of Women Helping Women, our board of directors and the women and children we serve, we want to thank you for your generous donation of time and effort to make Houston's Fantastic Shoe Event a huge success.

We met you at Deco and you agreed to bring your crew and camera and included us in your electronic newsletter. Your participation got everyone energized and lead us to a record breaking success! We received over $100,000 in press coverage and much needed funds.

It is only through the work of caring community leaders, like yourself, that WHW is able to continue operating one of the finest non-traditional trade training programs in the country!

With your support, our training program will continue to open doors of employment to hundreds of displaced women. In 2006, WHW trained and placed 181 women. Through our emergency shelter for batter women and their children, we were able to house, feed, supply clothing, medical attention and education to 209 women and 491 children in need.

It is our privilege to work with you and look forward to a long and lasting friendship."

--Faye Turner, Director, Women Helping Women Houston.
