The Description

Join us in celebrating young women in the inaugural Alief ISD Girls' Conference which will be held this upcoming spring at Cummings Elementary School. The conference is designed for third to sixth grade girls that attend an Alief ISD elementary and/or intermediate school. The conference is projected to host more than 300 attendees during the 1-day event, which features a panel of speakers, musical and dance performers. The Girls' Conference has two main purposes. The first is to celebrate the spirit of every girl attending. The second is to share the purpose of service and the importance behind giving back to your community. Our conference strives to educate, empower and elevate girls by connecting them to mentors, resources and opportunities that foster the spirit of sisterhood. Coupled with support from their peers, the girls will work together to plan, create and execute a community service project that will benefit the Alief/ Southwest Houston community.

These young girls are so deserving of this unique opportunity to celebrate being a girl. However, we are limited on resources to fully execute the conference’s goal. We are in need of monetary donations to purchase the following items:

  • Conference pens ( item to be put into attendee welcome bag)
  • Conference Programs
  • Conference bags
  • Conference Signage
  • Conference pads of paper ( item to be put into attendee welcome bag)
  • Food (lunch and snacks for conference attendees)
  • T-shirts
  • Personal size lotion (attendee welcome bag)
  • Personal size deodorant  (attendee welcome bag)
  • Conference highlighter ( item to be put into attendee welcome bag)
  • Mints ( item to be put into attendee welcome bag)
  • Conference Bracelet for each attendee

 

With your generous monetary support we can fulfill our mission of encouraging and enlightening girls in the Southwest Houston area into empowered and elevated young ladies.

 

Back Up Plan

If I do not meet my goal we still will provide a Girls' Conference and use the funds to purchase as many things off the list above.
