Meet an AWCD Member
"I arrived in Dublin three years ago to start university at Trinity College. It's only recently I've become a member of the American Women's Club and realising all the fun I've missed out on! Coming from Buffalo, NY where the snow is a half of year season, Dublin was a very welcome temporal change! Looking at all of the exciting activities and groups the club has to offer, I only wish I joined sooner!
My first AWCD experience came recently with an invitation to the French Ambassador's residence. On International Women's Day, a group of us were invited for a reception to celebrate the event. The rooms were filled with women from all over the world, all coming together to celebrate the day. After a speech by the Ambassador and talking with the different groups of women, I came away feeling empowered to be a woman!
If you're a new resident in Dublin or even just behind in joining, I'd strongly advocate membership. I can already see what opportunities there are to offer, probably the most valuable though is the chance to meet some great women!"
