Celebrating our 25-year anniversary is a testament to the collective spirit and strength of our constituency including over 5,000 global agencies throughout 36 countries, who share our purposeful focus on girls while facilitating a powerful force for positive social change. The agencies implementing SHE: Sisters, Healthy & Empowered services and the girls who are participating in SHE activities will be celebrated with us.
During the devastating 2017 storms, hurricanes Irma and Maria, our newly opened SEA: Sisterhood Empowerment Academy in the US Virgin Islands, St. John was severely damaged. We rebuilt it, stronger than ever, and remain vigilant in our ongoing support of millions of women and girls through partnerships, training, projects, programs, and products.
To mark this occasion, we decided to share our 25-year anniversary within our sisterhood by spotlighting the efforts of other amazing women and girls who have made a difference by standing up, stepping out and lifting us up to make the world a better place. Together, we realize the collective bond and power we impose when eradicating the issues we choose to champion. Therefore, we commemorate our anniversary by celebrating others!
Sisterhood is the foundation for collective empowerment. Our sisterhood is diverse and inclusive because we are all unique. Striving for meaningful connection, we want women and girls to know that they are never alone. This is the foundation of SHE: Sisters, Healthy & Empowered.
Later this summer, we will announce our first Sisterhood of Greatness Awards presented to two women and one girl who represent and exemplify a code of excellence in consciousness, character, and conduct.
We hope that you join us for this special event in the Baltimore-Washington, DC area, live-streamed on our YouTube channel.
In the Spirit of Sisterhood,
Angela D. Coleman
Founder & President
