Description

Until 1971, women could not be members of Foment Hortenc, although they collaborated. At the meeting of January 31, 1971, the Development Board explained the desirability of admitting “LADY MEMBERS”. The word “partner”, in the feminine, was not yet assumed. At that meeting a partner, very alarmed at the proposal, asked if “these Mrs. or Mrs. partners can be members of the Board of Directors, and it is declared that they are”.
