My Project

We’re hosting our annual Girls Empowerment: Celebrating Women & Girls Who Inspire event. This event not only empowers young girls but also serves as a positive culminating event at the end of our school year for all the women at RELC to learn and develop with our young ladies in a safe and fun environment. Girls Empowerment: Celebrating Women and Girls Women's Empowerment was designed to celebrate, but it also will raise awareness for our cause across the community.

We are asking for the support of our community to fund and provide valuable products and/or services so that we can support our attendees and participants.

Would you be willing to donate toward our event to help make this year’s event possible? With your donation, we’d be able to host a successful event aimed at motivating, supporting, and uplifting our young ladies at MS113.
