if you can see it, you can be it
The EmpowHER Awards will celebrate girls and women who are leading change across the Portland community. This event highlights their impact, creates meaningful opportunities to connect, and shows young girls what it looks like to step into their own power as changemakers in Portland and beyond.
Through the EmpowHER Awards, we bring together youth, mentors, partners, and nonprofits to strengthen connection and open new pathways for opportunity across our community.
