Celebrating Spring and Shared Purpose at our 2026 Spring Soiree
On Wednesday, April 29, we hosted The Spring Soiree at The Westmount Country Club, bringing together community leaders, healthcare advocates, and passionate supporters of maternal and child health. The celebratory evening highlighted the theme of shared purpose, underscoring that it takes all of us – our different skills, passions, and ideas – working together to advance maternal and child health outcomes. We are grateful to everyone who joined us, to our sponsors, our supporters, and our community, and we look forward to what we will accomplish together. This year’s Spring Soirée honored Charles R. Casser (Spirit Award), Shirley Harris (Impact Award), Jennifer Gomes-Lemon (Catalyst Award), and Sanofi (Excellence Award).
