Donate, Bid  & Party to Support Scholarships for Women Leaders

Give today to the Women Leaders Foundation Fund.

As we count down to the Women Leaders National Convention (only 17 days away!), remember that Women Leaders in College Sports exists because of our members. It’s because of YOU and your support that we can continue to serve thousands of women in every division at institutions all across the country.

Each year, the Women Leaders Foundation Fund awards scholarships to our top-notch Institutes and Convention to members who otherwise might not be able to attend. The video below shares the impact these scholarships have had on the careers of a few recipients:

This year, it’s our goal to raise $35,000 for the Foundation Fund to ensure we can continue to provide support to those who need it most.

We’ve set our sights high and we can’t pull it off without your help. So we’re kicking off fundraising early this year and providing you with a few ways to give.

First, you can donate here. Just select the amount you want to give and provide your info. It’s the easy way to give. And your generosity will certainly make a difference.

But now, cue the strobe light, get ready for tequila and margaritas, and bust out your dancing shoes (or cowgirl boots. We'll be in Texas, after all)!

It’s time to focus on the fun way to give: the Party for a Purpose, presented by Adidas!

This annual National Convention soiree is at 8 p.m. Monday, October 9. In addition to some pretty incredible hats that our Board of Directors will be wearing, here’s what you can expect:

  • Fun. Lots of it.
  • The first 200 people to arrive are entered for a chance to win an awesome door prize
  • Four incredible raffle items
  • The chance to win a free registration to next year's Convention when you purchase a $20 Women Leaders blinky bracelet and enter the heads-or-tails game
  • An opportunity to continue to bid on silent auction items
  • A DJ and dance party
  • A tequila bar!

Did we mention it’s a whole lotta fun? Actually, it’s the best kind of fun because it’s for a good cause.

Instead of doing a live auction like we have in the past to benefit the Foundation Fund, this year we’re only doing a silent auction. What’s the difference?

Well for starters, you can browse and bid on the auction items now. As in right away. (Seriously, go now.) We’re talking Rose Bowl 2018 tickets, mentoring opportunities, Notre Dame football tickets, wine tastings, and more.

And while you’re enjoying the sunny California climate from your vacation home—yes, that's an auction item, too!—you can feel good knowing your purchase is making it possible for another member to get the leadership training she needs to elevate her career.

Sounds like a win-win, right? Right.

Give to the Foundation Fund today.

Bid on a silent auction item and enjoy a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Then come to Party for a Purpose ready to celebrate your contribution to another member’s success.

Still need to register to attend National Convention? It’s not too late!
