On this #InternationalWomensDay we marched to one of the oldest colleges for women, asking them to continue their support of child care, empowering women to remain in the workforce. #savegorse @SaveGorse

Let’s show our appreciation for @mtholyoke while amplifying our message that we are still seeking a commitment from the College for long-term continuity of care at the Gorse Children's Center.
