Dennis Kelly to Head Delegation to October WTCA Meeting
in Boston
The
World Trade Centers Association Spring Meeting in Trieste proved
to be a very productive and enjoyable opportunity for
over 500 participants
representing almost every region of the world,
including four delegates
from WTC New Orleans.
These
WTCA meetings are excellent networking vehicles for WTC members
interested in international trade, tourism and economic
development.
WTC
New Orleans President Dennis Kelly invites you to
consider joining
him at the next WTCA General Assembly, which will be
held in Boston
on October 15 18.
This
is an excellent way to make useful business contacts
with executives
from all over the world and have one-on-one matchmaking
appointments
with other attendees.
The
trade mission aspect of the Boston meeting will focus
on high tech
industries, technology and its effects on trade.
For
more information, please contact Membership Director
Natalie Rideau
by phone at 529-1601, ext. 226, or via e-mail at
nrideau@wtcno.org.
Under
35 Network Spearheads Campaign for the
Homeless
The
Under 35 Network is a committee of young WTC members
who meet regularly
to organize events and programs of interest for our
younger members.
The
Committee has hosted several networking events over the year for
the Under 35 members to meet each other and members of
other business
and professional organizations.
On
Friday, September 1, the Under 35 Network will be
launching a campaign
to collect toiletry items for homeless shelters in New Orleans.
These
shelters have expressed a strong interest in obtaining
soap, shampoo
and other personal care products to help service the basic needs
of the homeless.
The
Under 35 Network's goal is to benefit three local
shelters for homeless
men, women and children.
Toiletry
items will be collected at the WTC's 29th Floor Executive Office
from September 1 to November 4 and will be delivered to
the shelters
the week before Thanksgiving.
After
business hours and on weekends, items will be collected
at the WTC
Lobby information desk.
For
more information, please contact Membership Marketing Assistant
Vanessa Bailey by phone at 529-1601, ext. 234, or by
e-mail at vbailey@wtc
no.org.
