Why are donations necessary?
The “Empower Women Communicators Today and Tomorrow” program fund was created with the vision to empower female students, professionals, and academics in all the fields of communication to develop an inclusive group of visionaries and leaders who can make a difference in their communities and their professions. Signature programming is accomplished through leadership training programs, boot camps, seminars, virtual workshops, mentoring programs, fellows’ programs, national conferences, annual workshops for young women academics, scholarly research, and other symposia. These signature programs and events create opportunities to envision and develop ways for future generations of diverse female communicators to excel in leadership. The center looks to engage in innovative and future programming such as a Fem in Tech Lab, a Leadership Training Institute, the build-out of the Information Exploration professional development course, the expansion of the Female on the Mic: The Power of Giving Voice Podcast series, and a “Future is Female” Innovation Hive. We ask that you consider making a gift to the “Empower Women Communicators Today and Tomorrow” program fund and invest in our signature programs and future innovative initiatives. Our program fund supports our work in empowering women to navigate their career trajectory so they may rise to its challenges and move into positions of leadership in today’s competitive job market.
