first meeting of the 2022-2023 school year!

Invest in Her Collaboration Meeting - August 14th

For our first meeting of the school year, EmpowHerX held a special meeting where we collaborated with Invest in Her to promote financial literacy with the young women of our organization! Invest in Her presented a powerpoint loaded with valuable information.  EmpowHerX learned how to save, budget, invest, and so much more!  We even learned the difference between a job and internship, how to apply for either, and how to behave professionally in an interview.  The skills Invest in Her so graciously provided us with will help us in our early adulthood and beyond!! A special thanks to Neha and the whole Invest in Her Team!


In addition, thank you to all who attended our first meeting of the year, and we look forward to seeing you again in September!  We are so excited for what the EmpowHerX Committee Chairs/Co-Chairs have planned for their meeting this year!

2022 Leadership Meeting

This year, we were fortunate enough to meet with and ask questions to the Managing Director of UBS. She taught us how to stay organized, how to be leaders, and how to succeed in the workplace and in life. She also shared her tips on how to work your way up as a woman in a male-dominated field.

For our final meeting of the school year, EmpowHerX held a special meeting and potluck in honor of our seniors! Each member volunteered to bring a sweet treat or a breakfast bite, making for a wonderful end-of-the-year feast. While enjoying the goodies, we discussed the highlights of the year and ways in which we could improve moving forward. Each senior also shared a final piece of advice with the younger members based on their college-planning experience. Alexandra and Claira concluded the session by awarding each member with an EmpowHerX "diploma" containing motivational stickers and a bracelet.
