The Marshall Center's Annual Benefit on November 12th a Huge Success!
This year's event was hosted by Norwegian Ambassador to the United States, His Excellency Wegger Christian Strommen. Each year our benefit highlights a Marshall Plan recipient country. This year’s theme highlighted Norway, and began with a special Patrons reception inside historic Dodona Manor.
