About Wand:
In March 1998 WAND began over lunch with four friends and founding members (Simone de la Bastide, April Bermudez, Jan Ryan and Penny Elias), to realize a dream of creating an extraordinary women’s charitable organization.
The Foundation aims to provide financial aid to single women from all walks of life, who are struggling to provide for their families and offers them opportunities to improve their living conditions.
