We had an inspiring time at the Girls Inc. National Luncheon on March 11! We are proud of Vivian, our alumna and Project REACH participant, for her powerful keynote address. Our student ambassadors celebrated the strength, intelligence, and boldness we champion. Special thanks to the National office for organizing this event. We were inspired by Auli‘i Cravalho's empowering words: “You are powerful not because someone gives you permission but because it is who you are.” Dr. Malena Rice's idea of "radical optimism," rooted in the wonders of the universe, reminded us of the potential in girls and young women. #GirlsIncNYC
