Raise money for Young Women LEAD
Young Women Lead is the nation’s leading trusted provider of life-changing and experiential leadership events for high school young women that take place online, and on the campus of colleges and university partners.
Founded by Sally Schott on the premise of “women helping women,” Young Women LEAD launched in 2009, as the result of a team of diverse female executive leaders in the Cincinnati and Louisville regions who came together because they were concerned about a lack of opportunities for high school girls to build confidence and leadership — and felt that girls deserved to be prepared to face the challenges unique to their gender and generation.
Sally Schott, the CEO of SOAR — one of the nation’s leading-edge provider of peer-to-peer leadership development programs for high-potential women and minorities globally — teamed together with Julie Carrier, “America’s #1 Speaker for Teen Girls,” and what started as a local conference for girls has become a national movement supported by our nation’s most trusted brands.
14 years. 57 live events. 42,500 girls. And growing.
