Jeannette Rankin Women’s Scholarship Fund 33rd Annual Dinner Friday, September 17, 2009 The Classic Center, Athens, GA

Join us in celebrating our 80 outstanding scholars at our Annual Dinner. The 2009 keynote speaker is award-winning author Melissa Fay Greene. Her first book, Praying for Sheetrock, was named one of the 20th century’s top 100 works of journalism by the New York University School of Journalism. Her most recent book, There Is No Me Without You, was celebrated among the best books of 2006 by Publisher’s Weekly, Entertainment Weekly, Christian Science Monitor, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, and Chicago Tribune.

Featured speaker Melissa Brooks is a graduating JRF scholar. Melissa will receive her bachelor’s degree from Franklin University in August. We’re excited to hear about Melissa’s many accomplishments as a student, professional and mother.

Keep an eye on the blog and, of course, our homepage, for sponsor information, ticket sales, and more about some of our speakers in the next few weeks.

We can’t wait to see you in September!
