President's message
Jill Torbert, President | Published on 5/25/2026
“Make new friends, but keep the old, one is silver and the other gold."
This Girl Scout song also has special meaning during May and June as we bring on new board members and thank others for their passion and service to the League. In May, Diann Andy, Glenda Wolin, Margaret Kanyusik, and Janet Scott, stepped away from their board duties, but, hopefully, not away from the League. Each one helped to move the League forward and we are grateful.
As we now focus on the midterm elections, we hope that our new friends, and there are many of you, will contribute to the movement we are building – a movement to motivate 3.5 million people to show up and take action to make positive change in our country.* Dive into democracy by joining us for John Lewis Day of Action (July 18) and LWV Day of Action (August 8), where we will teach, reach and preach about the current status of voting rights and how to impact our community.
