Join us for an inspiring luncheon that brings together corporate women leaders to champion educational access and career advancement while celebrating the Women With Promise Scholarship Program and its Scholars.
Empowered by Education features the amazing and award-winning Fareedah Shaheed.
As a teen, Fareedah connected online with a predator who portrayed himself as a trustworthy friend. She was ready to run away with him when, at the last minute, she confided in her mother.
That conversation changed her life and inspired her purpose: helping parents keep children safe online.
Fareedah's professional background is in cybersecurity and threat intelligence, and through her company, Sekuda, she's worked with companies like NASA, Meta, Verizon, Fed Ex and more.
She's been featured in Forbes, CNN, The Wall Street Journal, NBC and more!
Proceeds will benefit the Women with Promise Scholarship Fund, supporting women—especially those from underserved backgrounds—in pursuing the education that empowers them to rise.
BIG THANKS to our title sponsor, MarshMcLennan Agency and our table sponsors.
