Event Description
WIW LIFT is an advocacy and business development network of Morgan Stanley women from the Northeast Region dedicated to supporting peers to achieve business success and realize meaningful connections with their clients. Our goal is to "LIFT" all women at the Firm through coaching, networking, peer mentoring and recruiting activities.
Every year LIFT designates a Charity for our Marquee event held on October 21st.
This year we are choosing to support the American Cancer Society. We support ACS and their Hope Lodge program which provides free place to stay for those who are out of town receiving treatment. There is a Hope Lodge in New York City as well as Boston, there are 31 of them around the country.
Another reason for choosing this organization is to support our Morgan Stanley team of Marathon runners who run the NYC Marathon and fundraise every year for ACS. This year the team consists of 17 runners, one of them is on the WIW LIFT Board. We are close to reaching $1,000,000 raised as a team for American Cancer Society over 10 years.
Let’s make cancer history, please consider supporting this Organization and visiting one of the Hope Lodges.
