The Women's Business Council is pleased to announce their Adopted Nonprofit for 2013 is the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation of Northeastern New York.
They were chosen from a large pool of worthy candidates. While the decision was extremely difficult, as all the applicants are deserving, we feel confident that raising awareness and supporting the mission and services that Cystic Fibrosis provides in the Capital Region will be a mutually beneficial partnership.
As it is our tradition, we are seeking members to donate raffle items for each program. All proceeds will go Cystic Fibrosis.
