Carolyn Potter Endowed Lecture
In honor of the late Carolyn Potter, who dedicated many years of service as our Club's Director and Events Chair, we are pleased to announce the establishment of the Carolyn Potter Endowed Lecture. This endowment aims to create a lasting tribute to Carolyn's commitment to our community that reflects her passions and contributions.
Initially envisioned as a lecture focused on oncology and other health concerns, it will also reflect Carolyn's interests, exploring topics related to culture, the arts, and music, at the discretion of the Harvard Club of the Palm Beaches' board. This annual lecture will serve as a tribute to Carolyn’s commitment to community engagement and her enthusiasm for hosting diverse events.
The endowment will provide funding for distinguished speakers, educational materials, and outreach efforts related to the chosen topics, fostering a deeper understanding and appreciation of these important issues within our community. Together, we will honor Carolyn's memory and continue her legacy of service and dedication to our alumni family.
