A Look Back at Past Cool Women Celebration Events:
At the Cool Women Celebration, sponsors, honorary commitee, and community members come together to raise critical funds to support programs that inspire girls to use their voices, develop a strong sense of self, step outside their comfort zones, and build resilience.
