Faces of Success Luncheon

More than 700 friends of Arizona Women's Education and Employment (AWEE) packed the Arizona Biltmore for giveaways, raffles, amazing stories of success and a look at how Jeanne Lind Herberger Award winner Mildred Bulpitt trail-blazed opportunities for women, not just in Arizona but across the country as well. Bulpitt was one of AWEE’s original founders in 1981.

Presented by Bank of America and co-chaired by Kathey Wagner of B-On the Obvious and Susan Farmer of Bank of America, Faces of Success honorees Zeny Stuart, Moises Mota and Ariana Armstrong-Perez told spellbinding stories of overcoming incredible challenges to change their lives through the dignity of work.

Emcees Nicole Crites from CBS5, Hall of Famer Tim Hattrick and Al Molina from Molina Fine Jewelers kept up the frenetic pace that put gifts and prizes in more than 150                    guests’ hands. The event raised $307,000 for AWEE services and programs that help change lives.
