WBL - Announcement and Here’s to Us 2010-1

We would like to take the opportunity to announce that Adrienne Colburn, Strategic Relations Coordinator at the WBL Foundation, will be leaving WBL to pursue her career in Austin, Texas. Adrienne has been with the Foundation since October 2007. We will miss working with her as we are sure many of you will as well. Adrienne will be staying with WBL until June 2010 to ensure a smooth transition and will remain a resource to WBL and our Foundation Associates for several months. We hope you will join us in wishing Adrienne all the best for a wonderfully successful career, and we hope that those of you in Austin will consider reaching out to her.
