Cynthia Howes was sponsored as an ARCS MWC member by BJ Cantus in 1982. We thank Cynthia for her ongoing commitment to our chapter over the past 42 years! 

Cynthia says that she was aware of ARCS because her husband was employed by an aerospace company in Washington that desperately needed scientists and engineers like the ones that ARCS MWC supports. She also knew several members and was terribly impressed by the caliber of the members that the chapter attracted and their mission.  

Her proudest achievement was her work with the Development Council. She says she contacted many corporations that donated to ARCS MWC! Cynthia was selected as an ARCS Light and was also named an ARCS Angel in 2004.

Cynthia commends our chapter’s members, saying: “Continue the good work! You are performing a very necessary and important job for our country’s future. The United States definitely needs more scientists and engineers.”
