Marcie Christensen is going to speak to the Forum about "Dining for Women", a non-profit movement to help women and girls internationally, and the basic human rights that are denied to women all over the world.

From the Dining for Women website:

"Dining for Women is a dinner giving circle. Our chapter members "dine in" together as a chapter once a month, each bringing a dish to share, and our "dining out" dollars (what we would have spent if we had eaten at a restaurant) are sent to programs empowering women worldwide. We then combine all donations from hundreds of our chapters to support carefully selected international programs each month. We fund grass-roots programs in education, healthcare, vocational training, micro-credit loans and economic development. These programs are aimed to improve the living situations for women and their families, by providing the tools they need to make changes."
