Hear about the past year at TWC (it’s been a wild ride!) and our path forward in FY21. We look forward to seeing you there.

Congratulations, Reyne!

We are so proud of Reyne Athanas, one of the original founders of Tundra Women’s Coalition, on her induction into the Alaska Women’s Hall of Fame. She has poured her heart and soul into our community and we are all so much better for it. In a KYUK article about her life in Bethel and induction into the Women’s Hall of Fame, Athanas states that, of all the amazing programs and organizations she’s started up here in Bethel, the one she is the most proud of is Tundra Women’s Coalition. We couldn’t agree more and are so grateful for her foresight.

Quyana Reyne, for everything you’ve done for Tundra Women’s Coalition and the community of Bethel!

PURPLE PICTURE COMPETITION: ALL MONTH

We are challenging local groups (agencies, school programs, sports teams, etc.) to send in a picture of your group wearing purple or holding things that are purple. You have the creative control to make your picture as humorous, aesthetically pleasing, and awash in purple as you wish. Send all submissions to Annie Mae Lee at alee@twcpeace.org.
