Cocktails for a Cause

The May issue of Guilford Stroll features Cocktails for a Cause, an event to
encourage donations for the Carry On Shop. The COS team hosted Guilford neighbors in March for a night out, showcasing the shop and the impact high-quality donations has on its success. The beautiful photography of the article includes many smiling faces familiar to the Women’s Board. The Everhart Veterinary Medicine ambulance, on hand to collect contributions, was background for several fun pictures as it was filled with contributions. Thanks were given to sponsors Everhart Veterinary Medicine, JTC Jewelry Design and Maryland Eye and Face.

Cocktails for a Cause draws on the important theme of Resale for a Cause,
highlighting the importance of community support and donations to the Women’s Board fund raising efforts on behalf of Johns Hopkins. The Carry On Team and the Women’s Board are grateful to Stroll Guilford for the continuing coverage. This includes complimentary ads and now six articles!

Dreams of the Golf Classic Team 2023

Monday, May 8 dawns a gorgeous day with blue skies and perfect temperature for golf.  The full complement of 100 golfers are ready for a great round of play on the beautiful course of the Greenspring Valley Hunt Club.  Women’s Board volunteers are in place, greeting and organizing. The continually growing 50-50 raffle kitty is approaching $12,000.  The golfers must feel a bit unlucky because they are buying as many mulligans as possible.  Those feeling lucky are looking forward to winning the silent auction golf get away! This adds up to a successful day to add to the over $2 million the Golf Classic has contributed to Johns Hopkins through the years!
