About this Event

Brunch With Purpose is more than a fundraiser! It's a celebration of impact, empowerment, and community. Hosted by the BecomingHER Initiative, this inspiring afternoon brings together leaders, mentors, and supporters who believe in creating opportunities for the next generation of girls.

Guests will enjoy a beautifully curated brunch experience featuring a delicious meal, inspiring keynote speakers, live entertainment, and meaningful conversations that highlight the mission of BecomingHER — to help girls rise with Honor, Excellence, and Resilience.

Expect connection, laughter, raffles, and powerful stories from women who embody purpose and perseverance.

Your presence helps us continue building safe, powerful spaces where girls feel seen, celebrated, and supported.
