 San Francisco artist Paulette Long has joined the Web Women Giving Circle. More Magazine recently featured Paulette in an article. She talks about art and philanthropy:
"I've decided to donate 20 of my paintings to raise money for the MORE CARE project in Peru. These paintings were made in sympathy for all the people in the world who are in transition in their lives -- who are in migration to new places from dangerous or unsatisfying lives.
"The paintings are about hope and courage. Through my donation, I want to help the women of Peru to develop their skills and self reliance. I am asking my friends to buy these paintings and to join with our Circle in applauding the courage our our Peruvian sisters."
Paintings below (top to bottom): "3 Swans in Transit," "in transit" 6x6, and "in-transit" 6"x6". Cost of the paintings is $300 each. Contact Paulette Long for more information.

 Laura Kovacs would be too shy to tell you that she was recently listed as an “Icon in Real Estate” by Broker Agent Magazine in Phoenix, AZ. So we’ll tell you for her. And an Icon she is. Laura is truly the “go-to expert” on both corporate relocation and referral services within the real estate industry - and the inspiring leader of a superb team of professionals.
A REALTOR since 1976, Laura started with Realty Executives Relocation at it’s inception in 1994. She is a CRP (Certified Relocation Professional) and has her LTG (Leadership Training Graduate) from the Women’s Council of REALTORS. She is serving as the 2006/07 Chair of the Professional Development Group for the Arizona Assn. of REALTORS, and is the current President of the Arizona Relocation Alliance.
"I was traveling in Peru when I received Joeann’s email about the project. I read through the information and set it aside until my return. Joeann contacted me again and thought I would be a good addition to the group. I can never resist Joeann’s drive and enthusiasm for everything she puts herself into. Having just hiked the Salcantay Trail (40 miles) to visit Macchu Piccu, and seen the need for a program like CARE and the tremendous benefit it can bring to an area – I couldn’t resist to help somehow. I know that my small contribution of time and energy WILL make a global difference – and I may never have that opportunity in my life again!"--Laura Kovacs

I value her and the causes to which she commits, and I was delighted to share this commitment to the Web Women Giving Circle."

"The Giving Circle captured my imagination immediately. Whatever business I've been in, I've always donated a portion of the income to some worthy cause or other.

My coaching company, Shaboom Inc., Life could be a dream..., sponsors two children through Childreach/Plan USA.
