‘Dream Maker’ Panelist

As a Dream Maker, you will share your journey and valuable career insight with young audiences and families. We connect with young women in many ways and want to introduce them to a large variety of underrepresented careers, while spotlighting women in these industries. Dream Makers choose their commitment level and can include interviews for blog/media, podcast guest, Facebook Live Q&As, and joining as a panelist for career discovery expos (held virtually or in-person).

What you share does matter!

‘Perfectly Unfiltered’ Podcast

If you work in a field where women are under-represented, or if you are part of an initiative to balance the workforce, we want to share your story. Guests of the Perfectly Unfiltered podcast provide insight on a day-in-the-life, share advice and career journeys, and/or highlight their work to build inclusive environments.

Volunteer

We count on our committed volunteers throughout the year, assisting with various projects and events. Volunteering is a great way to meet new people, experience new opportunities, and strengthen community ties. Volunteering allows you to demonstrate and enhance current skills, while also learning new ones that can increase future opportunities.
