Why does a Day of Empowerment matter?
“I’ve never been to an event like this where I sit down and listen to amazing people speak about their past, their ambitions, their dreams and what they hope to become in the future and what they are now. It inspires me to do better and think about what I want for myself. "
CHRISTINA, 17
What happens at a Day of Empowement?
"I was able to talk with someone who’s working in the same field I want to go into, and be encouraged to do what I want, to have a plan —and more than one plan because it won’t always happen or go the way I want it to go.”
GENESIS, 16
