Why I donate

Susan Remmer Ryzewic

"I support WCD because I believe in, and have benefitted from, its multi-pronged approach to strengthening corporate governance. I especially value the relationships which I have developed through my membership. "

"WCD provides me with networking support and innovative education through the combination of local chapter programming, the institute conferences, and the research."

Evelyn Dilsaver

"Imagine if at least half of the board compositions were women. Imagine if half the CEO's of Corporate America were women. Imagine if at least half of our elected officials were women. What would our world look like?"

"I give to mission-driven organizations that know why they exist and what they want to do to make our world a better place, now and for the future. As women on boards, we have the power and capability to create organizations that improve the lives of our employees, the communities we serve and our shareholders, all at the same time. It is not an either/or decision. By giving a donation, I believe we will continue to advance our mission and realize our goals for greater inclusiveness."
