Meet Louise
Member Since 2004
“I joined the Circle because some of my friends were members, and I wanted to become more philanthropically involved in Baltimore City, particularly with regards to women and children. I have done that by participating in Grants, Post Grants, and the Education Committee. There is no judgement or pressure--each can participate in a way that is comfortable. A wonderful by-product has been the chance to meet so many smart, passionate women of differing backgrounds. Our membership in the Circle is an instant bond.” Louise Kemper
