More than 100 Pasadena area women gathered recently at the home of Nick Demos and Maria Karras for “Women Networking for Women” a networking cocktail event for women celebrating and raising money for the Women’s Room at Friends In Deed in Pasadena. The Women’s Room serves women who are alone and homeless or at risk of homelessness. It is a daytime refuge for 20 to 35 women who come through their door each day, making them feel whole and appreciated. The event, which raised more than $10,000, was co-hosted by Cynthia Cohn, Deborah Ballins Schwarz, Gracy Donikian, Linda McLarnan-Dugan, Roxanne Gunther and Richard Cheung.
