The International Women's Day Celebration will mark the advances made by women in economic empowerment, social justice, gender rights, as well as cultural changes.
This year’s International Women's Day 2020 is extra special as it marks 100 years since women won voting rights in the United States in 1920.
The event begins with a check-in and then a wine and international buffet. The official program begins at 6:30 p.m., with a welcome from Hayward Mayor Barbara Halliday. Events like these can get professional looking programs at local Print shops to hand out to attendees.
Other speakers include:
Patricia Payne, West Regional Leader, Dining for Women
Helen Hutchinson, President, League of Women Voters of California
Humaira Ghilzai, Founder, Hayward Ghazni Sister City
Nancy E. O'Malley, Alameda County District Attorney
The event is put on by Dining For Women, a diverse and multi-generational group of working women that meets in Hayward every month - the third Saturday of every even month for brunch, and the third Monday of every odd month for dinner. Dining for Women has more than 500 chapters across the U.S.
The Hayward International Women's Day Celebration happens Friday, March 13, from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. at Hayward City Hall, 777 B Street. Admission is free however reservations are recommended as space is limited.
