150 Coats Donated to Women’s Shelter

At our monthly luncheon on Wednesday, November 17, 2021, the women of the NRV Express Chapter of American Business Women’s Association (ABWA) heard from representatives of the Radford-Fairlawn Daily Bread and the Women’s Resource Center of the New River Valley, two amazing organizations in our area that provide services for those in need.

Stephanie Bryson, Community Engagement Coordinator at the Women’s Resource Center was there to accept our Coats for Kids donations collected in October.

Gretchen Dee and Dora Butler of the Daily Bread attended as guest speakers to share about the community services they offer. ABWA NRV Express Chapter’s President, Brenda Eanes, presented The Women’s Resource Center with 150 coats collected in the NRV.

Thank you to all those who made it possible by donating coats and money, thanks to the 14 business locations collecting coats for this mission, and special thanks to Marcus Moore of A Cleaner World Blacksburg for cleaning our coats & Curtis Crowder 107.1 PSK for getting the word out for us.
