Our Honorary Chairs, Cindi & Jay Anthony
In appreciation for their faithful contributions, we are delighted to announce that longtime Literacy Achieves supporters Cindi and Jay Anthony will serve as Honorary Chairs of this year’s gala. Cindi was Board President in 2005 when the first Wings of Spring event took place, making it particularly appropriate to have this dedicated couple as our Honorary Chairs as we celebrate the 15-year milestone for our annual gala. Since its inception Wings of Spring has raised nearly $3 million to Change Lives Through Literacy.
