The Grapevine: Stephanie Iaquinta, Annual Banquet, a $5,000 Annual Partnership with Antero, and More

By Rosalyn Queen on July 04, 2024 from The Grapevine

Stephanie Iaquinta, Grants Coordinator for the Antero Foundation, was the keynote speaker for the Women of Distinction Awards Luncheon presented by the Progressive Women's Association held Friday at the Uptown Event Center in Clarksburg.  The luncheon recognizes women in our community who make a difference by their volunteer involvement.
 
“I am grateful for all you do to make this region a better place to live, work and raise our families.  Volunteerism and charitable work do not always get a round of applause or a standing ovation, but it should in this community where it is so desperately needed.  We take care of one another,” Iaquinta said of the honorees. “… This is a shared sentiment of Antero’s as we pride ourselves in the ability to affect positive change in North Central West Virginia as well as across the Appalachian region.”
 
Iaquinta concluded her presentation by announcing Antero’s partnership with the Progressive Women’s Association. 
 
“Over the next five years, Antero is honored and excited to present the Antero Women of Distinction Award through a $5,000 gift to the Progressive Women’s Association,” Iaquinta said.
 
I thanked Iaquinta and Antero for their generous gift and outlined the difference it would make in honoring Harrison County Women volunteers
 
I told those gathered the “PWA looks forward to working with Antero and is most appreciative of this generous gift.  It is our desire that the good deeds of these honorees and future honorees will inspire others to come forward and act. By this generous gift Antero is helping forward our work.”
 
The next WOD awards ceremony will be held in October honoring Italian Heritage and Culture month.
 
For more information call 304-624-6881 and until next week “Now You Have Heard It Through the Grapevine.”
