Comedian Kate Clinton greeted all attendees at Fenway Health's 25th Women's Dinner Party with a happy 25th anniversary song. More than 1,100 lesbian, bisexual women & their allies came together at the Boston Marriott Copley Place on Saturday April 9th for this fabulous elegant fundraiser that raised over $500,000 in support of the life-saving programs & services at Fenway Health. Massachusetts Attorney General Maura Healey was this year’s recipient of the Dr. Susan M. Love Award. AG Healey was honored for her work on LGBT civil rights & marriage equality & for being an out & proud LGBT politician. Healey stated, “I’m beyond honored to receive the Dr. Susan M. Love award at Fenway Health's 25th Women's Dinner Party. I dedicate this award to transgender people across this state & across this country. I've got your back.” Director of Women's Health Dr. Jenny Potter talked about the importance of great healthcare for women. Celebrity Chef Tiffani Faison helped get the crowd pumped for their live auction that raised thousands of dollars to support Fenway Health’s mission which is to enhance the wellbeing of our LGBT community & all people in our neighborhoods & beyond. The evening concluded with dancing to the awesome sounds of Splash. This year’s event was made possible thanks to the hard work of event co-chairs Lauren K. Matysiak, Kendra E. Moore, PhD & Carol A. Roby as well as the support of their generous corporate sponsors.
