- Marla Williams, President and CEO, Community First Foundation; former Executive Director of The Women's Foundation of Colorado; CWBA President, 1991 - 1992

"The CWBA provides camaraderie, synergy and the sharing of ideas and concern. It also serves as a megaphone through which women's voices can be better heard on issues of importance."
