Communities of Light 2018 Honorary Chair: Pam Mount
We’re excited to announce that Pam Mount, owner and operator of Terhune Orchards, will serve as our 17th Annual Communities of Light™ Peace Begins At Home Honorary Chair. Pam is an avid conservationist and agrotourism leader in New Jersey. Womanspace is thrilled to be working with Pam, a longtime supporter of Communities of Light and active member of the Mercer County community.
In addition to her role at Terhune, Pam has served on numerous state and local councils and boards, including the Lawrence Town Council, New Jersey Agricultural Society, Sustainable Jersey, and the Lawrence Community Foundation- just to name a few. Pam also served as mayor of Lawrenceville, and as a Peace Corps volunteer in the South Pacific. Pam was honored by the New Jersey Society of Women Environmental Professionals (NJSWEP) for her efforts to promote environmental sustainability in the local community and beyond, and has been honored for her Sustainable Jersey work. Pam has three children and nine grandchildren.
The Communities of Light campaign occurs every October in recognition of National Domestic Violence Awareness month. Beginning with our launch event on October 23, we encourage businesses, neighborhoods, and community organizations to purchase luminary kits, raise awareness of Womanspace’s services, and spread the message that “Peace Begins at Home.” The campaign concludes with a countywide luminary lighting on December 3, which serves as a powerful symbol of hope for those impacted by domestic and sexual violence in Mercer County.
Please join Womanspace for a free reception on Tuesday, October 23, 2018 at the D&R Greenway Land Trust in Princeton, New Jersey at 5:30 PM. All are welcome, but space is limited. Be sure to register by calling 609-394-0136 or emailing eat@womanspace.org.
