Sue Ehrlander, East Canada Section, a
Ninety-Nines Endowment Fund Trustee:
"As a member of the Ninety-Nines for
23 years, I have worked on numerous projects for the organization,
from Chapter to International.
The role I have played as a Trustee
for the 99s, Endowment Fund for the past five years has been the
most important I have ever undertaken. The 99s are a wonderful,
challenging and diversified group of women who are strong-minded and
adaptable.
One of the biggest challenges facing
our group is funding our growth and adaption for the future. It has
become apparent that dues alone will not enable us to bring to
fruition all the imaginative projects that have been conceived or to
meet the needs of our ever evolving membership. This can only be
done by establishing a large reserve to generate income for us now
and forever.
Making the membership aware of this
need and assisting in the prudent management of this fund for the
future is the best work I can do for the 99s now."
