"I owe many things to the CWBA: opportunities for leadership, marvelous friends, a pair of used tap shoes, and a couple of major hangovers."   - Marla Williams, Former President and CEO, Community First Foundation; former Executive Director of The Women's Foundation of Colorado; CWBA President 1991-92
