Being a busy mom/wife and my work life as a deposition court reporter was fulfilling and challenging, but the rewards of helping others is so gratifying. I've served on the Board as president, VP Fundraising, treasurer, and publicity director in addition to serving on committees too numerous to name. I co-founded our Carlsbad Holiday Market in 2014, which continues to this day, and is our biggest fundraiser of the year.Edith Broyles BioI have been a member of the Woman's Club of Carlsbad since 2015. I was drawn to it because of the numerous philanthropic opportunities, which focus on our Carlsbad community as well as local neighboring communities. Along the way I have also enjoyed the friendships and camaraderie with other women that believe in the importance of giving back and supporting various charitable organizations. We have a rich history in Carlsbad and are currently celebrating our Centennial Anniversary.Connect with the Women's Club of CarlsbadWebsiteFacebookInstagramDon't forget to vote for them for the Nonprofit of the Year!
