Please join us in support of Girls Inc. of the Washington, DC Metropolitan Area for our signature fundraiser, POWER OF THE PURSE.

It is an extraordinary evening where we honor women who champion change in our community and exemplify the Girls Inc. mission of Inspiring All Girls to be Strong, Smart and Bold. Your investment helps all girls in our region get and stay on that path to success. We know it does not matter where a girl is from, as long as she knows where she is going.

Why invest in Girls?

• Only 1 in 5 girls believe she has the qualities to be a good leader
•  Women account for less than 20% of the college degrees in engineering, computer science, and physics
• Programs for girls receive only 6% of the philanthropic dollars
• Only 3% of Fortune 500 companies have women CEOs
• Women make up only 15% of corporate boards

We look forward to seeing you on October 21!
