THE VOICE OF INDUSTRY WEEKEND

Join women across industries for three days of connection, celebration, and growth.

Become an Ally

Stand with women who lead, build and create. Your Ally gift opens doors for access, wellness, scholarships, and student participation. Every Ally name appears on the printed Ally Wall at the event. A matching Ally Roll lives on the website for year round recognition.

Founder’s Note

When I started this work, I promised to keep a chair open for the woman who almost stayed home. The Ally Wall is how we keep that promise together. Your support becomes a seat, a caption line, a quiet moment to breathe, and the courage to try again. Every name on the Ally Wall tells a story. Some gave so a student could attend. Some gave so someone could read the words on stage. Some gave so a woman could rest and return with strength. However you give, you help another woman move forward. I am grateful you are part of this.
