i began volunteering at jubilee at a time in my life when i felt like i needed to be giving back to my community - i found jubilee women's center through a google search and it satisfied many of the things i was looking for in a non-profit.  located on capitol hill, serving women, combating homelessness.  

i've been on the board for five years now, and watching the work done there still never fails to amaze me.  women at jubilee are provided not only with affordable housing but also holistic support services, on-site case managers and a focus on employment preparation.  this customized, long-term approach is remarkably effective.  

jubilee's fall fundraiser, their largest of the year, is being replaced by small events held by individuals.  this dinner is one of those - thanks so much for being here, please let me know if you have any questions.
