Women's Campaign International

The other week I reconnected with a fantastic organization - Women's Campaign International (WCI). Check out www.womenscampaigninternational.org. WCI is located in West Philadelphia. Since 1998 WCI has increased the number of women elected into office around the world by providing them with leadership skills, advocacy training and technical assistance. WCI has worked in more than 20 countries worldwide. They are about to kick-off a new program locally for high school aged girls called GALS. The goal of the program is to increase participants' skills in community leadership and activism, global awareness, advocacy, social media, financial literacy, public speaking and networking. They have partnered with the Freire Charter School. If you are looking for a strong, women-focused, women-lead organization then this is something to check-out.
