A Message from the President on International Women’s Day, March 8, 2008

Dear Friends,

In commemoration of International Women’s Day, please join me along with the Creative Associates team in Washington, D.C. and around the world, in shining a spotlight on women and girls everywhere. We congratulate them for their immense contributions in providing leadership, increasing access to quality education, strengthening civil society, advancing democracy and for making our world a more inclusive and better place.

As a minority, women-owned company, Creative has a longstanding commitment to developing women leaders and advancing education opportunities for women and girls so that they may fulfill their potential while contributing to their communities and society at large.

While the needs are great and much remains to be done, Creative is privileged and honored to have the opportunity to be working with so many women and girls who will become future leaders through our international donor-funded projects that help promote peace, stability and prosperity for all.

Peace,

M. Charito Kruvant

President and CEO
