Free dinner in Pontiac to encourage & celebrate leadership among women

So now we want to get to Isha Branner. Isha, how are you? I'm doing well. So Isha is with eCommunity Outreach. So you have a project that you are lining up, a leadership conference focused on women. So where did this idea come from? It came from Milana Jones, and I teamed up. She is the District 2 Councilwoman in Pontiac. Okay. So I kind of undersold the idea because it's lead her ship. Yes. Okay. Look, Isha, we've had a lot of conversations about you working with other women, not just in the Pontiac area, but Oakland County, Metro Detroit. You like when women who are leading nonprofits, leading businesses can collaborate. how do you hope to evolve with this kind of dinner that's coming up so to your point yes i do um i actually have a women in business working center outside of the community services so this is right right up my alley my hopes for this dinner is for women to just understand that it's not about a title you can still be a leader you don't have to have a business um we want people to come in and just realize that they are super women like you got whether you are just a mom just running a business doing non-profit um and we want each other to just not network we want to show our appreciation we're going to give them a dinner um it's going to be some music playing we got some amazing speakers that's lined up and so we really just want uh to bring a group of women in the room right now we got about 150 uh registered i know we got a few more slots um available for um them to uh register and come on but it's just going to be a night of just connection networking empowerment um and yeah just hopefully some women leave out and leave inspired no that's it no we're listening to you so we had the flyer on the screen moments ago i'm not sure how well that people will be able to to read it but let people know um the it's this saturday what time so is this saturday um at six it's going to be at western community center uh pretty much is where we are in uh where one of my offices at 640 West Huron in Pontiac okay you should brought her um we appreciate it what else you have going on because i know we're getting close to thanksgiving we're getting close to the holidays this is where your heart grows three times bigger and you love to give back to the community so what you got planned so for right after this event october um 30th we have our halloween event which last year brought out over 4 000 families we got over 60 vendors that's going to be coming in november we're having uh we're partnering up again with smart bus we're going to be passing out well preparing and providing 100 Thanksgiving dinners to seniors.
