- One business card is drawn to give that lady a chance to “Spotlight” their business
- There is a “Topic of Discussion” after the member spotlight
- “No membership fees” or requirements
- “All businesses” are welcome
- “Selling” is not prohibited

I just wanted you to know how much I learned from Leslie Green’s class Credit Repair, last Saturday morning. It was well worth the $20.00 and the 2 hours.
I know how I can raise my credit score and I also know how to read my report from the 3 credit reporting agencies to find errors.
I think everyone could benefit from your class. Everyone needs to be aware of the mistakes that can occur and everyone needs to know how to fix them.
Now I can also monitor my reports for ID theft and best of all I know where to go to report it if I do see ID theft.
Leslie is such a wonderful resource for credit reports, credit repair, collection problems, credit scams, and where not to go to get credit, and credit repair, and so on.
This last Tuesday I attended the Women’s Table Talk at the La Mancha Business Center. The officer, who actually does work in the Fort Worth Homicide Department, gave me information that I never knew before. I was abused by my first husband and the Air Force would do nothing about it even though I had bruises around my neck. Now there are police who will do something about it. I don’t have to be ashamed to report that I lived with and married a wife beater.
This officer, who has 34 years of experience working on homicides, was so knowledgeable that I got my 4 granddaughters and my daughter to go to the Downtown YMCA to hear him speak on Womens’ Safety the very same same night. It is so refreshing to know that when the Fort Worth police are called to a domestic violence problem that they can do something to the one who is victimizing and know the signs if the violence looks like it could turn into murder at some point. The officers have become knowledgeable in the field of violence against women. That is why they freely give of their time to educate us girls or anyone who wants to listen and learn.
Officers now know the signs to look for if that woman, child or person is in danger of being battered, sexually assaulted or murdered. I learned that 90% of all murdered women know their attacker. And the same is true of children.
I know it used to be that we taught our children to beware of the “stranger.” I taught my daughter to yell FIRE!, if someone tried to kidnap her. In 90% of the cases it is not the stranger but the uncle, aunt, grandma, grandpa, coach, minister, family friend, father or mother that kill children. Just look at the news lately. A mother murdered her two children because she didn’t want Autistic children. When asked what she was feeling, she said nothing. And what about the step mom who was jealous of her little stepson? And the mother in Florida who claimed the last time she saw her daughter was at the babysitter and then her daughter’s body was found wrapped in garbage bags in the woods behind her house.
Girls, things have changed! And you should know that you don’t have to put up with the beatings anymore. You will be believed if you report that someone is beating you. Long gone are the days that you try to put a restraining order on a person and find they aren’t really being restrained. How many times have you heard a woman was murdered and there was a restraing order on the man who murdered her? The police department in Fort Worth doesn’t have to have evidence of bruises or broken bones before you are believed.
Just one other thing. Do you think you have to put up with being raped by your husband? NO! Now you can protect yourself, your children, both the boys as well as the girls. We don’t have to live in fear anymore. Report those _____ _____ and move into a woman’s shelter until your attacker is put behind bars.
Please don’t wait until your children are either murdered along with you or until they no longer have a loving mother.
