23rd Annual Power Lunch for Women to benefit Citymeals-on-Wheels
11/20/2009 - By Cipriani 42nd

23rd Annual Power Lunch for Women to benefit Citymeals-on-Wheels

The Citymeals-on-Wheels Power Lunch for Women has taken a permanent
slot in the appointment books of New York City’s (and the country’s)
leading ladies - in business, politics, entertainment…and the list
goes on.

For the 23rd year, they hosted this must-attend event at
Cipriani 42nd Street on Friday, November 20, 2009 at noon.
This annual event began when Citymeals founder Gael Greene and Board
member Joan Weill decided to spoof the concept of the power breakfast
(largely a male institution) and hold a Power Lunch exclusively for
women. Since then the lunch has grown into a networking imperative for
the city’s most influential ladies…and the handful of generous men who
pay $10,000 for the privilege of joining them. This year Citymeals
honored Joan Weill, along with Citymeals Vice Chair Joan Tisch, both
extraordinary philanthropists and long-time friends and supporters of
the Citymeals mission. This year’s honorees were Joan Tisch,
Co-Owner, New York Giants & Vice Chair, Citymeals; Joan Weill,
Chairman, Alvin Ailey Dance Foundation Theater & President Emeritus.
Paula Zahn was this year’s event Emcee and special performance was
Kate Baldwin, currently starring in Finian’s Rainbow on Broadway. The
event raised $1.1 million – enough to provide over 200,000 nutritious
meals to our city’s homebound elderly.
