“Evolution and growth mean life to
organizations, as well as individuals.
Take this thought with you to your
chapters, and please remember that
true loyalty to those gone before you
in P.E.O., to the founders, if you will,
lies in improving the unfinished
structure they bequeathed to you,”
“For P.E.O. is only
yet in its
beginning.”

IF EVERYONE ONLY PLAYED
ONE MUSICAL NOTE, THERE
WOULD BE NO SUCH THING
AS A SONG
EACH INSTRUMENT IN THE ORCHESTRA MAKES BEAUTIFUL MUSIC
BY ITSELF, BUT THEY COMBINE THEIR DIFFERENCES TO JOIN
TOGETHER IN HARMONY AND CREATE SOMETHING GLORIOUS.
IN THE SAME WAY, IT TAKES
ALL KINDS OF WOMEN TO
CREATE A STRONG,
VIBRANT SISTERHOOD.
