Funds from 40th Authors Luncheon Distributed
The Arizona Women’s Board raised net proceeds of more than $550,000 at the Nov. 16, 2019, Authors Luncheon. Chaired by Susan Doria, the event at the JW Marriott Desert Ridge Resort and Spa had record attendance and the highest grossing revenue in Arizona Women’s Board history.
The organization recently granted the proceeds to six local organizations whose missions support kidney patients, as well as the prevention, awareness, education and research of kidney disease. The grantees include: National Kidney Foundation of Arizona, Phoenix Children’s Hospital Foundation, TGen Foundation, Transplant Community Alliance, St. Joseph’s Foundation and Valleywise Health Foundation.
Funds granted to these organizations will be used to promote a diverse number of kidney health-related programs and patient services.
