Dear MPIGNY Members,

As we enter October, I want to take a moment to reflect on the significance of this month for several important causes that shape our community, our world, and how we lead with purpose and intention.

First, October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, a time to recognize the strength and courage of those affected by this disease. It’s a reminder of the importance of early detection and the critical need for ongoing research and support. I encourage all of us to engage in raising awareness, contributing to life-saving efforts, and supporting those in our community who have been touched by breast cancer.

This month also marks the anniversary of the ongoing crisis in Israel. It’s a sobering reminder of the challenges faced by those impacted by conflict and the importance of compassion, peace, and unity. As leaders in the meetings and events industry, we play a role in bringing people together and fostering understanding across different cultures and backgrounds. Let’s continue to promote dialogue, support humanitarian efforts, and contribute to peace in our global community.

Additionally, we conclude Hispanic Heritage Month, a celebration of the vibrant contributions of Hispanic and Latinx cultures. This is a time to honor the rich heritage, diversity, and impact of the Hispanic community in shaping our society. I encourage each of us to continue recognizing and celebrating the many voices and stories that make our industry and community stronger.

As your President, my intention is to lead with purpose, compassion, and inclusivity. These important causes remind us of the responsibility we have, to not only grow professionally but to also create meaningful change. In the coming months, MPIGNY has several exciting events on the horizon, offering opportunities to connect, learn, and lead with intention. Let’s continue to build a community that reflects our shared values of respect, collaboration, and mutual support.

Thank you for your dedication to our chapter and for being a part of this journey. Together, we can make an impact that goes beyond our professional lives and touches the greater good.
