Crazy Dreams

We are now less than one week away to our first event for The Center for Girls' Leadership!  Up until now, it has seemed like a just crazy dream but on Saturday, it will be a reality.  We are so excited to finally share the CGL with the our first girls!


I heard this Carrie Underwood song this week and I was struck by how great of a song it is for the dreamers out there:  "Thank God even crazy dreams come true."  

Thank you to everyone who has given us their support over the past couple months.  This is just the beginning!

Pathways to Leadership: Women in the Law 2.25.12

The Center for Girls’ Leadership will host its first program, “Pathways to Leadership: Women in the Law,” on Saturday, Feb. 25, at the University of St. Thomas School of Law. The event will include a panel presentation and short mock trial. The panel will feature at least five attorneys from the community.

Open to women in high school and college, the event will be held from 9 a.m. to noon (check-in begins at 8:30 a.m.) in the Frey Moot Courtroom, located in the School of Law on St. Thomas’ Minneapolis campus.

Through the Pathways to Leadership series, the Center for Girls’ Leadership, a nonprofit organization, teaches young women in high school and college about possible future career options in various industries. Each program features a panel with women from the community discussing their individual leadership journey, as well as small group discussions and activities.

Registration is free and available at the Center for Girls’ Leadership website; the program, a CGL gift and a snack are included.
