Consider the benefits of cross-generational communication and learning. Think of how much we could gain from each other if we shared our places in history, our experiences, and our perspectives. Women are, by nature, mentors, and storytellers. If we have time, we enjoy sharing our experiences, sharing advice, and providing support. The older we get, the more we have to share. Karen and Myrna, founders of WiseWomen, LLC refer to women of experience as "wise women." That's why they have created the WiseWomen Foundation, an organization that exists to provide grants to individuals and organizations to inspire the next generation of wise women.

By 2010, one in four Americans will be over 65 and half or more of these individuals will be vital, energetic, and smart women. They've had heartaches and triumphs that have yielded pearls of wisdom. What Karen and I want to do is to make sure that their stories are told in ways that benefit the next generation of women. We also know that wise women can learn from the perspectives of younger women as they work and live in ways that older generations could never have predicted. It's all about appreciating each other and inspiring us all to move forward.
