Two of our outstanding seniors brought a crowd of 2,300 people to their feet in applause at the annual New York Women’s Foundation breakfast on May 13th.
The event honored singer/song writer Mary J. Blige; Founder and CEO of EILEEN FISHER, Inc. Eileen Fisher and Social Justice Advocate and Executive Director of Grand Street Settlement, Margarita Rosa. CNN Anchor and Special Correspondent Soledad O’Brien was the emcee.
Kate and Karry gave an inspiring speech about perseverance and teamwork and the many lessons they have learned through rowing, not the least of which is to never give up. They will be headed to Queens College and Bryn Mawr College in the fall.
The sisters are pictured here with Mary J. Blige.
