Behind Women Fighting Hunger
Published on September 25, 2019
Gail Graham, the founder of our Women Fighting Hunger breakfast shares her thoughts on the creation and growth of the annual event for its 10th anniversary edition on Wednesday, September 25, 2019.
Gail created the event while an executive at Fidelity Investments with a small group of women dedicated to the fight against hunger in Eastern Massachusetts.
In the past 10 years, the event has grown from 30 Fidelity women meeting over breakfast to over 450 women and men from competing financial industries and other businesses in Eastern Massachusetts. Today, the event generates over $1 million for hunger relief and is one of The Greater Boston Food Bank’s premier fundraisers.
