Our Founder, Elinor (“Ellie”) Guggenheimer, said in a 1996 interview that her girlhood dream was to be a mathematician, but that her mother explained no man would marry one! The February 12th event is designed to continue NYWA’s mission and honor our founder’s girlhood dream by engaging in a new project to advance the interest of New York City’s young girls, STEMpreneur Mentoring Initiative.

**High school students can attend for free**

They must register with us, and present photo ID at the door. Students with questions can call Rosemarie Sharpe at (212)937-2411 or email office@newyorkwomensagenda.org.

The event is designed to:

  • recognize leadership potential
  • inspire girls to dream big
  • help girls focus on the next steps to realize their potential as entrepreneurs or leaders in STEM-based fields and other industries.
The Tea’s program will include an interactive discussion featuring successful women entrepreneurs and leaders from diverse backgrounds sharing their stories and answering questions from the high school girls.
We invite your support of this important initiative by becoming a sponsor of the February 12th Mentoring Tea.

Proceeds from the event:

  • support NYWA’s efforts to continue to being a resource for STEM events
  • include NYWA selecting two girls from New York to receive a scholarship to attend the 2016 Enterprising Women of the Year Awards Celebration & Conference in Miami, Florida on February 27, 2016.
