    Empowerment Resources Inc. 15Th Annual Journey Into Womanhood Awards Celebration

    Empowerment Resources Inc. 15th Annual Journey Into Womanhood Awards Celebration Warrior Women and Girls: Worth More Than Rubies Thursday, May 16, 2019 The River Club 5:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. Welcome Warriors to the 15th Annual Journey Into Womanhood (JIW) Awards Celebration. This evening, you’ll meet our 2019 JIW program participants as well as our high school senior, who is graduating from the JIW program, with plans to attend college in the fall. We are also honoring nine warrior women who are inspired to make a difference in our community. Last summer, I reflected on how remarkable it is that we were entering our 15th year for the Awards Celebration. It was also during that time that one of beloved core volunteers was putting on her warrior gear to fight an illness. For the first time, I met a real warrior who through it all, kept a big smile on her face and a sense of humor. I also reflected on women in our community who are everyday warriors, as well as women who have supported us throughout this journey. Thus, the theme for this year’s Celebration, Warrior Women. When JIW started 15 years ago, my short-term goal was to create a summer program to fill in a gap for teen girls. JIW has exceeded my expectations. A few program accomplishments include: 38 JIW graduates Average time for a girl to participate in the program is six years Awarded $25,000 in scholarships 75% of JIW alumnae return to give their time or treasure Because of the generosity of individuals and community organizations, Empowerment Resources and our family of programs are making an impact in the lives of youth and families.
