"It is Mrs., yes. I'm very glad that you thought to ask. Thank you, Mrs. Fowler." Her lips turn up in a smile, and she continues, "Money certainly is not just talk for men, but it wouldn't do for me to make all of today's guests feel as though the only reason they're here is to open their wallets. We plan to hold a meeting next week to discuss the outcome of today's fundraising and how it will be used; perhaps you'd like to join us? I'm sure that a woman such as yourself could offer valuable insight."
