Join WIN Today!

 

 

WIN, The Women’s Initiative Network, is a unique organization just for women. It’s a place for us to network, share ideas and dreams and raise money in support of your LOCAL United Way. 

 

 

In 2011 WIN will be offering more opportunities to get together with the women of Clovis and Portales. Each year WIN hosts 4 luncheons each one featuring a prominent woman in New Mexico. This year’s luncheons will feature an Event Planning Chick, a Commando Chick, a Rock n’ Roll Chick and a Political Chick. In addition to the 4 luncheons WIN will also be hosting a variety of socials and fabulous events celebrating women. You will also receive quarterly newsletters with WIN event highlights, news you can use, updates on local activities and much more.

 

 

This year WIN welcomes a new Chair, Ernie Kos preceding her was Robyne Beaubien. Both of these women as well as the Chairs before them are committed to the success of WIN and believe in WIN’s message to LIVE UNITED.

 

 

As a WIN member you will be celebrating and empowering women through the events offered while raising money to support the vital programs of the United Way of Eastern New Mexico. Join WIN and you are building a stronger community.

 

 

                 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

History of WIN

 

  • ·        WIN was founded in fall 2001 by Gayla Brumfield, as a way for women to network and to provide a fundraising strategy to the United Way of Eastern New Mexico. The Kick-off luncheon was held Oct. 29 at the Holiday Inn with 35 women attending. Today the Membership is over 100 women.
  • ·        Early fundraisers included a day trip to Ruidoso for shopping and an evening performance of the musical “Titanic” at the Spencer Theater for Performing Arts and al El Beso Del Sol Wine and Cheese Festival.
  • ·        In 2003 and 2004, a Holiday Fashion Show and Champagne Brunch were held in December. The event moved to a spring slot in 2005 when it became a Fashion Affair and Tea. In 2007, a champagne brunch was held instead of the tea and in 2008 the event featured a luncheon with tables decorated by attendees. And in 2011 the event will undergo yet another make-over and become “Power of the Purse”
  • ·        Periodically, other special events have been held. The first was a Women’s Health Seminar at Clovis Community College in January 2002 which has since turned into our annual Women’s Health and Wellness Day held in October at CCC each year.
  • ·        Gayla Brumfield served as the chairwoman of WIN until fall 2005 when Claire Burroughs took over. Claire served in this capacity until August of 2008. Robyne Beaubien was the next head of WIN with her term ending at the conclusion of 2010. New in 2011 is chairwoman, Ernie Kos.
