BREAKING NEWS...
As you may be aware, June Kelly chose to meet Donald Trump as one of her personal challenges for 2008.
Unfortunately, Donald Trump canceled the speaking tour, leaving June out of pocket thousands of dollars.
An article appeared in the local papers recently intimating that Women Can challenged June Kelly to meet Donald Trump. I would like to make it very clear that is not the case, but that June Kelly chose to meet Donald Trump and thought it would be a great Personal Challenge Quest entry.
Further, June is in communication with Donald Trump's office and seeking to negotiate a win:win outcome for all concerned.
In the meantime, June has opted to join the Commando Kick Butt Challenge and will be one of the mentors for the program.
If you are semi-fit and want to work with June for the six week challenge, please click on the link above and register now!
Personal Challenge Quest
The Woman of Spirit Personal Challenge Quest is open to all women, from any location, aged 18 years and over.
Women select a personal challenge from one of seven categories. They may choose one from the list or come up with their own challenge.
Once a personal challenge has been selected, an action plan for the month of November is drafted. Each woman registers their action plan with the Women Can International Inc Quest Project Team. The team then monitors each woman's progress providing support during the month of November.
One woman from each category will be chosen at the conclusion of the month to receive an award, with an overall "Woman of Spirit" awarded a trophy for the most inspirational personal challenge.
All submissions will be judged by the Committee and invited panelists and the decision will be based on a structured criteria. The judges decision will be final and no correspondence will be entered into.
The award recipient will be featured in our newsletter and on our website and will be presented with the trophy and any prizes at our conference in December 2008.
To register your project, please email your challenge plan, including your full contact details to quest@womencaninternational.com. You will receive a confirmation email that your entry has been accepted. Entry is free to all women aged 18 years and over.
