    DEAR FRIENDS, Thank you for joining us for the 15th Power of the Purse! Though we are coming to you from Portland, Oregon, this year’s virtual event is being broadcast to celebrated Girls Inc. supporters all throughout the country! These last 15 years have been quite a journey for us both. We vividly recall our first meeting in 2005, to discuss the concept of pairing Portland “notables” with local purse designers to create one-of-a-kind handbags to be featured at an annual, one-of-a-kind event ‒ Power of the Purse! An event concept that would fully celebrate the breadth of Portland’s highly acclaimed design community while giving voice to the expansive chorus of Portland’s leaders, artists, entrepreneurs, and philanthropists – a community of champions building the foundation for the next generation of strong, smart and bold leaders. Now 15 years later, and millions upon millions of dollars raised to champion for the empowerment of girls and an equitable society, we have the honor of Co-Chairing this 15th event. It has been an absolute honor to watch this event concept grow into a powerful platform for empowering youth. We are so grateful to be part of this movement here in Portland. Although we are unable to join together in person for this sensational event – we are still united in spirit and in fundraising – allies within our community – with an open mind and a readiness to continue empowering Girls Inc. youth – our future leaders of tomorrow. Stay strong, smart and bold dear friends! RISE WITH HER.

    annual report 2006-2007 INTRODUCTION Last year, our signature Readings/Workshops program continued its nationwide expansion, made possible by our successful capital campaign in 2006, which enabled us to establish an endowment to bring the program to six new cities. In 2007, we began supporting writers participating in literary events in Washington, D.C. and in Houston. In Washington, D.C., we funded events taking place at venues, including Columbia Lighthouse for the Blind, Edmund Burke High School, and Busboys & Poets. We also partnered with Arte Publico Press, Nuestra Palabra, and Literal magazine to bring writers to audiences in Houston. In addition to the cities noted above, our Readings/Workshops program supports writers and organizations throughout New York State and California, and in Atlanta, Chicago, Detroit, and Seattle. Last year, we provided $215,050 to 732 writers participating in 1,745 events. Poets & Writers Magazine celebrated its 20th anniversary last year and offered a number of helpful special sections, including a collection of articles on the increasingly popular MFA degree in creative writing. The magazine also took a look at writers conferences, including old favorites like Bread Loaf and Yaddo, as well as some newer destinations—the Macondo Workshop for Latino writers and Soul Mountain for African American writers. We also offered “The Indie Initiative,” our annual feature on small presses looking for new work, and “Big Six,” a snapshot of the country’s largest publishers of literary books. Our Information Services staff continued to provide trustworthy and personalized answers to hundreds of writers’ questions on topics ranging from vanity presses to literary agents.

Wetzel was given a shirt emblazoned with “SOLO SENIOR” to wear before the Oct. 31 game. Then, when her teammates removed their warm-up jerseys, she saw that they were all wearing shirts bearing a photo of her in action. A touched and inspired Wetzel went on to tie her career best for points in a contest, with a goal and two assists as the Beavers defeated Arizona, 3-0.

  • “The Only Girl in the Woods”: Gender in Contemporary Nature Writing1
    “The Only Girl in the Woods”: Gender in Contemporary Nature Writing1 Charley Locke Senior Essay in Humanities Advised by Professor Amy Hungerford Due April 18, 2014 1To many readers of Ralph Waldo Emerson, his image of himself walking in the woods, “buoyed up by force of his exhilaration” to “become a transparent eye-ball,” is “the quintessence of Emersonianism.”2 Lawrence Buell uses this phrase, so often highlighted by readers, as evidence of his broader claim about Emerson’s intentions: when writing about being one with nature and valuing physical work, his aim is “invigoration of the mind,” valuing “spiritual vigor” over physical exertion in the wilderness (94). According to Emersonian views, nature primarily serves to bring the truth of who our individual selves really are into clearer focus. He writes, “I may yet be wrong; but if the elm-tree thinks the same thing… it must be true.”3 Nature is a proving ground for his thoughts, checking their accuracy, voicing incontrovertible truth. To Emerson, understanding one’s genuine self necessitates seeing and comprehending the truths outside, which requires a removal from one’s particulars. Looking outside can awaken introspection. For many readers, the striking image of the transparent eye-ball is a lasting reminder of what Buell interprets as Emerson’s central theme: “physical nature’s potential to energize the powers of the human mind once we awaken fully to their inherent interdependence” (112).4 In fact, Emerson acknowledges the reciprocity of the “occult relation between man and the vegetable,” as “they nod to me, and I to them,” but 1 Quote in the title is from Wild: From Lost to Found on the Pacific Crest Trail, by Cheryl Strayed.
