50 for 50: Founders Circle Award Winners Susy Cheston, Martha Cray, Jill Dailey Smith, and Linda Vander Weele
By Opportunity International
On Saturday, February 20, 2021, we presented the first of a series of 50th anniversary awards. The first Founders Circle Awards went to a group of Opportunity International pioneers who helped us innovate our strategies and programs to better serve clients. These awards celebrate the earliest days of initiatives that have come to define Opportunity s work and we are so excited to go back and remember how these programs began.
In the early 1990s, a group of Opportunity International donors in the United States wanted to build a system that would allow Opportunity to lend to those who needed resources most, including women all around the world.
