Simone Biles, the most decorated women’s American gymnast in history, received a standing ovation for the inspiring words she delivered at the 19th annual Women United Luncheon. But what will be forever etched in the hearts and minds of officials from the sponsoring Mile High United Way is the positive impact the Olympic gold medalist had the night before when she met with teens who had just emancipated from the foster care system. “She had been scheduled to spend 30 minutes with them, but she stayed for two hours,” recalled Christine Benero, the agency’s president and chief executive officer.
