About this Event

Welcome to the 4th Annual "Women Who Make It Happen" Scholarship Fundraiser!

Join us on October 5th, for an afternoon filled with inspiration, networking, and learning from successful individuals. This in-person event is your chance to meet our future leaders and connect with industry professionals who didn't let obstacles stand in their way in achieving their dream.

EDUCATION (IT TAKES A VILLAGE)

Do you remember the excitement and challenges of going to college? The long financial aid lines, struggling to secure work-study, juggling part-time jobs, or waiting anxiously for your student loan or Pell grant to be processed? It wasn't easy then, and it's only gotten harder. Or perhaps you recall being in K-12, unable to participate in a school activity because funds were tight at home.

Today, the cost of school activities and higher education is staggering. For many bright and deserving students, the dream of participating in sports, learning an instrument, or even going to college feels out of reach. But together, we can change that. It truly takes a village, and now more than ever, we need to stand behind our kids. They are our future engineers, doctors, teachers, and leaders.

Your donation to this scholarship fund isn’t just a gift—it’s an investment in their dreams and in our future. With your support, we can help lift the financial burden on these students, giving them the opportunity to focus on what truly matters: their education and growth, from K-12 and beyond.

Every dollar counts. Please join us in making a difference. Let’s be the community that gives these students the chance they deserve. Buy a ticket today and join us. If you’re an educator, come meet our organization and see how we can partner with your school to support your students. Together, we can help them succeed!
