Join Rosie's Place at our annual luncheon—the best in Boston! This year's featured speaker is Edwidge Danticat, an award-winning Haitian-American author. Ms. Danticat is the bestselling author of Oprah’s Book Club selection Breath, Eyes, Memory and the National Book Critics Circle Award Winner for her memoir Brother, I’m Dying.
The afternoon will be co-hosted by longtime friends and luncheon emcees Susan Wornick and WCVB’s Karen Holmes Ward. They will be joined by anchorwomen from Boston television outlets: Latoyia Edwards, Kate Merrill, Jadiann Thompson and Vanessa Welch.
At the luncheon you’ll have the chance to network with other Rosie’s Place supporters, shop for gorgeous jewelry made by our guest artisans in the Women’s Craft Cooperative, win a fabulous centerpiece from Neiman Marcus and hear the inspiring stories of three women whose lives have been changed by Rosie’s Place. All proceeds from the afternoon help provide food, housing, advocacy, education and employment opportunities–and so much more–for the 12,000 women who visit us each year.
