Our membership strives to represent the spirit of our founders, in particular, Irene Leahy McMahon. Irene’s ardent volunteerism, professional and civic contributions, and most importantly her kind and loving manner reverberate throughout our Board. Each year at our signature benefit, Art of Caring, the Irene Leahy McMahon award is presented to a Women’s Board member who has given unselfishly of her time and talents to Women’s Board activities and to Catholic Charities. This level of commitment exemplifies Irene’s dedication to Catholic Charities and represents a continuation of Irene’s legacy.
