IAEE women are making an impact not only in business but in our communities. We believe showing gratitude is being thankful for our industry and IAEE women are committed to returning that kindness to others who are less fortunate.
It’s the season for giving back, spending time with family and friends, and giving to others! How will you make a difference?
