INVITATION TO PARTICIPATE
An annual “Fearless Women Day” is being created in honor of the 90th Anniversary of the 19th Amendment being ratified, which gave Women the Right to Vote.
On this day, August 26th, 2010, women from all over the country and Canada, in partnership with eWomenNetwork, with 25,000 members strong, will come together in fearless celebration. Each city will select one woman who will be given a Fearless Women – Susan B. Anthony Award to honor her fearless contribution to the world. The ultimate goal of the award is not only to honor the selected fearless woman, but also to support her dream and help her gain closer access to her goals.
We invite you to be a part of the revolution!

Join us on August 26, 2010 as we celebrate the 90th Anniversary of the Women’s Right to Vote as ratified in the 19th amendment of our Constitution. On this day, women from around the United States and Canada will celebrate their fearless journey.
Events will happen simultaneously in a wave of fearless celebration. We will honor women who fearlessly blazed the trail before us and women who are creating major change in the world now. Each city participating will vote for, select and honor fearless women who have contributed to their community and the world by awarding them a “Fearless Women” Award.
We invite you to attend our first annual, Fearless Women Day ‘s
{luncheon}
in Los Angeles
to benefit
the Anne Douglas Center for Women.
The Los Angeles Mission women’s outreach and rehabilitation program was named the Anne Douglas Center in recognition of Mrs. Kirk Douglas’s long-standing compassionate generosity to the homeless. Mrs. Douglas has said, “If I had but one wish, I think becoming a recognized patron of homeless men and women would be it. I hope together we will be able to alleviate their plight entirely.” The Anne Douglas Center provides a year-long rehabilitation program for homeless and otherwise destitute women. The women are provided with shelter, meals, and clothing. They also undergo a career-skills development process, as well as relationship rehabilitation and spiritual counseling—all of which enable them to become independently functioning members of society. Rehabilitation is followed by a transition program that gives the women the support they need to return to life outside the Mission.
The Emcee for this event will be internationally acclaimed award winning actress, director and United Nations Goodwill Ambassador Linda Gray who is best known for her role as Sue Ellen Ewing, the wife of Larry Hagman’s character, J.R. Ewing in the 1978 worldwide syndicated hit show “Dallas”. Also, one of our performers will be, Grammy award winning, Marilyn McCoo.
On this day, Fearless Women from major non-profit organizations such as The Grossman Burn Foundation, ACT Today for Autism and The National Women’s History Museum in DC are banning together in support of the Anne Douglas Center for Women. In addition, internationally acclaimed photographer Mary Ann Halpin will be premiering her latest book entitled Fearless Women, Fearless Wisdom which is a culmination of 40 female entrepreneurs from across the country and Canada to celebrate their courage and strength in having worked through their fears to achieve great personal and professional success. Mary Ann, along with the 40 women adorned on the pages of this book, committed to raise awareness and support for their most impassioned cause and beloved charity. Out of this commitment came the inception of Fearless Women Day.
Seating is limited and available on a first come first serve basis, so reserve your space today.
