We are looking forward to joining the wonderful women of 100 Women of McKinney for their upcoming Spring Social on April 23, and we’d love to see some familiar faces there!

As the Executive Director of The Wellness Center for Older Adults, I’m especially grateful for the support our organization received from 100 Women of McKinney at their last giving event. During the evening, Lee Stark will have the opportunity to share an update on how that generosity is helping us expand programs and support older adults in our community.

If you’ve ever been curious about 100 Women of McKinney or want to learn more about the impact of collective giving, this is a great chance to stop by, connect, and hear what’s ahead for their next giving event.

It’s a free event, and guests are welcome—so bring a friend! I hope you’ll join us for a fun evening of connection and community.

Save the Date, Ladies! April 23, 2026
