WE'RE EMPOWERING YOUNG WOMEN
with our SheStrong Toastmasters summer program

As part of our year-long SheStrong program, our Toastmasters Summer Program introduces SheStrong members to public speaking in a low-stress environment where a friendly facilitator and their peers are their mentors. In summer 2022, these young women will begin attending small group workshops designed to boost their communication and leadership skills: capabilities that will serve them well not only in their future academic and work careers, but in change-making and advocating for others.

​How you can help

1
2​
3​

​If you know a young woman in high school with leadership potential, tell her about us!  Any high school student who identifies as female is welcome at SheStrong. She can apply to join SheStrong here.
​​​If you have a specialty in community leadership or activism, intersectional feminism, women in politics, diversity, or self defense, please consider serving as a speaker at our annual summit! We greatly value your expertise. 
​​Empower a young woman by sponsoring her! A $60 donation will pay for a local high school girl's participation in SheStrong for one year, helping her develop as a leader and changemaker in her community. Donations can be split into monthly installments if desired.

2022 Toastmasters Summer Program

Our SheStrong Toastmasters summer program is a multi-week workshop series designed to empower young women age 18 and younger with improved confidence, communication, and leadership skills. These workshops also help participants overcome nervousness while speaking in front of an audience, organize and present ideas clearly and logically, and more.
