It is just like Doreen to accept an honor as huge as being named Washingtonian of the Year by turning the attention back to The Women’s Foundation and the NBC4 Health and Fitness Expo—two community efforts she supports tirelessly.

I caught an inspiring post from last week on Philantopic: "Holiday Cheer: The Story of Women Moving Millions."

The article describes the increasing success of the Women Moving Millions campaign, which has thus far raised more than $110 million to support women and girls around the world, despite the global recession that has driven many individuals and foundations to cut back their giving.
