WPCNR WHITE PLAINS ROUNDS. From Fortunoff. November 19, 2007: Fortunoff brought its second-annual “Women in the Know” Awards to Westchester by honoring three outstanding women earlier this month at its White Plains store. They included WNBC-TV Anchor Darlene Rodriguez, Westchester’s First Lady Brenda Resnick Spano, and White Plains Hospital Center Board of Directors Member Susan Yubas. Attendees received a 15 percent discount on purchases throughout the store, and Fortunoff donated $10 per purchase to the charity of the purchaser’s choice. The charities included the American Heart Association, the Westchester Children’s Museum and White Plains Hospital Center, which were each selected by Ms. Rodriguez, Ms. Spano and Ms. Yubas, respectively.

Pictured at the Fortunoff event, from left to right, were Darlene Rodriguez, a Westchester resident, co-anchor of award-winning “Today in New York,” WNBC-TV’s popular early morning newscast; Esther Fortunoff, Executive Vice President of Fortunoff; Westchester County Executive Andrew Spano and Brenda Resnick Spano, both of Yorktown Heights, Westchester’s First Lady; and Susan Yubas of Rye, a member of the Board of Directors of White Plains Hospital Center.
