Celebrate the impact of women-led philanthropy at 1000 Women’s biggest fundraising event of the year!
Nature is a perfect symbol of what it is to be a woman. It is fierce yet beautiful, powerful yet calm, bold yet feminine.
And it embodies the 1000 Women movement—a community of committed, compassionate women and allies all driven to make an impact and reduce barriers to education.
This year’s 1000 Women: Inspiring Possibilities fundraising event is inspired by nature. Step into the natural wonders of philanthropy and enjoy an array of gorgeous greenery, lakeside charm, and, of course, delicious appetizers reminiscent of luxury cottage vacations.
You will also connect with our purpose-driven community and surround yourself with both elegance and impact during this unforgettable evening. Listen to one of our STEM award recipients share their story and be invited into a movement committed to creating lasting, generational change.
It’s truly an event you will not want to miss.
