This moment matters more than ever.

When you rise and shine with us at the She’s the First 15th Anniversary Gala, you will support our core mission: programs that educate, mentor, and teach girls about their rights — from as far as India, Nepal, and Kenya to as close as Texas, Arizona, and your own zip code.

This elegant breakfast with influential advocates like you will raise vital funds to sustain our work, at a time when spaces for girls' empowerment are shrinking.

Featuring Mission Moments by:

  • Elvira Roquel, an alumna of MAIA (an STF partner in Guatemala since 2010), will share her inspiring journey as a first-generation graduate and speak to her power as a She’s the First Girls Advisory Council member.

  • Christine, 17, escaped Female Genital Mutilation (FGM) with the help of our partner Msichana Empowerment Kuria in Kenya when she was 11. You’ll learn about her brave decision to seek help and our community-based partner’s dedication to ensuring girls’ safety.

  • Meet girls from our Chapter program and Girl Activist Fellowship, who will give you a live demo of the campaigns they created to advance their rights. Two of them, Allison Choong and Sania Hammad, will be our gala emcees!
