Thank you to everyone who attended the 2022 Women In Milford Gala!  This has been a fantastic year for us at Women In Milford! We have a brand new website, new monthly newsletter, and new members! We have gained about 450 new people this year, which puts us at 1,285 members of this supportive community.

Our monthly meetups this year have been so fun to plan and even more fun to be a part of!  We have learned Instagram Reels, Marketing, Bookkeeping, and Canva. We’ve had a wine tasting, practiced pilates, and explored the world of watercolor.  We have done volunteer work at a local women’s shelter, and sponsored two movies at the Milford Independent Cinema!  We even had a couple meetings where we just brainstormed new ideas, shared insights, and got to know each other better.

We’ve had 37 Features and 2 Instagram Takeovers this year, where we were introduced to so many incredible women and their stories.  These features give us a little insight into the person behind the business, and that personal knowledge helps us all appreciate each other and the work we put into our businesses.  I hope we have even more features next year because I truly meant it when I tell you “You are interesting, you are valuable, and you have so much to offer!  It’s time you were featured.”

All in all, I’d say this year was a success, and there’s no way it could have been so successful without each and every one of you.

I think it is so important to have a community that supports each other, and these women, you all, have been incredibly supportive of each other. I have seen first-hand the connections you’ve made and the friendships you’ve built, and it is truly a wonderful thing to be able to witness.

I am so happy that we end our year with this event, because like so many of our meetups, it gives us the opportunity to reach out and connect with like-minded, hard-working, and supportive women in our community.  

Thank you again for coming out to our event last night, I hope you had fun, and I can’t wait to witness more of your greatness in 2023!
