LHS Girls' Empowerment Conference

Help me give my students an amazing experience with these goody bags for our girls' empowerment conference!

This project is fully funded

Ms. Simmons M.B. Lamar High School
Arlington, TX Grades 9-12

My Project

We are putting together a half day conference for some of our students to celebrate being a girl and learning self-empowerment skills. This is an important topic as DEI (diversity, equity, and inclusion) has been under attack and, with that, women's accomplishments and capabilities have been under attack. The goody bags will show the girls that they are valued and will make the conference more impactful for them.

Our students have goals and dreams but need our guidance to help them achieve them.

These girls are funny, creative, and capable! We want to support those qualities so they can continue being awesome and spread the self-positivity message to others.
