Women get a head start on 2017

By The Crest Magazine17/01/20171 Min Read
Guests of the Women in Business Networking Session and Hirsch's Hillcrest PRO, Alexandra Howard.

Recently, Hirsch’s Hillcrest hosted their first Women in Business Networking session for 2017.

Guest speaker Karen Brokensha, Marketing and Fundraising Co-ordinator for Ithemba Lethu, spoke about ‘The Importance of Giving Back’ and how charity begins at home. Karen made the guests sit in a circle to allow for an interactive session.

“We often see people in need, that we cannot afford to help with money, but money is not the only way to help someone. Each of us has gifts and talents that we can offer to help those less fortunate than ourselves, sometimes it can be as simple as volunteering your time or expertise to help others.” said Karen.

Congratulations to Claudette Lingenfelder, January finalist for the national women in business competition “The Margaret Hirsch Women in Business Achiever Awards”. Claudette is the owner of Beauty Beyond, mobile hair, make-up and training.

To attend our next networking session or find out more about our other events, please contact Hirsch’s Hillcrest PRO, Alexandra Howard on (031) 761 7500 or email alex@hirschs.co.za.
