A message from Amy Amdur on International Women’s Day: On this day of Women, I give recognition and respect to the mothers, grandmothers, sisters, partners, teachers, artists, doctors, women in political office - to ALL women who strive to make this world a better place everyday. I am constantly in awe of the women I know, many balancing career, family, caretaking, & blazing trails daily… And who do it backwards, in heels and for lower wages. Let us look ahead. Support each other. Let us raise strong capable daughters and mentor young women. We are strong & resilient. We are capable. We are women. 

Love,
Amy
