A LETTER FROM THE CHAIR |
|
|

Jan. 2010
HAPPY NEW YEAR!
HWNT had an interesting
2009 with some good and some bad events.
We lost our Chair
Elect, Barbie Hernandez, in early December 2009 after a brief but valiant battle
with Leukemia. We will all miss her and acknowledge her long dedication to HWNT.
We send our deepest sympathy to her family and will post the information for a
memorial account set up by her family.
Other members of our
organization have had illness and death in their families and we want to include
them in our thoughts and prayers.
We have created a
position for an Executive Director on a part time basis. We are growing so fast
and so much is happening that we are in need of the services of an Executive
Director to help our organization.

HWNT
chapters will support the 2010 U.S. Census which
will take place nationally starting
April 1, 2010 and will count everyone
living in the U.S. According to the U.S. Census, the
confidential survey is required by law, is taken
every 10 years and is crucial to how decisions are
made in the government including the distribution of
Congressional seats as well as the allocation of
$300 billion in federal funds to communities each
year.
Texas
is part of the
Dallas
region which also includes
Louisiana and
Mississippi, the
Gulf
Coast area and the majority of the
U.S.-Mexico border.
Help the Census by contributing your time, telling
others of its importance and informing yourself
about the process.
