Op-Ed: NCHS Senior Intern on the ‘Unique Opportunity’ of LiveGirl
|
In 2025, women made up 57% of college graduates. Yet, despite representing half of the population and possessing the education to pursue leadership roles, women make up only 28% of Congress and just 11% of Fortune 500 CEOs. These were the statistics shared with me during my first conversation with LiveGirl Founder Sheri West. To fully understand the mission of LiveGirl, it’s important to first recognize the need to support women and girls especially at this moment in history. I had the opportunity to intern at LiveGirl through the New Canaan High School Senior Internship Program.
