As a team member, each of us has made an agreement to fundraise to ensure uninterrupted delivery of virtual programs and mentoring through the EmpowHer Girls Academy. We are asking you to sit at my symbolic table at the upcoming Inaugural Virtual PATHMAKER ICON Awards Gala and help me raise the necessary funds with your donation. Serving teen girls in marginalized communities is more important now than ever.
The PATHMAKER ICON Award recognizes and honors women who are changing the landscape through their achievements, leadership, courage, and strength and have made a significant contribution to their field and serve as inspirational role models but also innovators to women everywhere.
Our EmpowHer Girls Academy and EmpowHer Leaders Academy programs provide education, skills development and mentorship to at-risk girls. Our programs serve low-income, minority, girls ages 11-18. Based on school data, between 94% and 100% of the students we serve are low-income. In the 2019-2020 school year, EmpowHer Institute served 385 girls.
