In each city, we recruit 100 Friends of the program. These are women and ethnically diverse men, who are personally referred and recommended by other Friends or colleagues who think they may want to support our Mission. They may also be interested in attaining a corporate board seat (or aspire for a larger board assignment). Friends are helping accelerate our expansion into additional cities such as San Francisco, Dallas and Atlanta. Each Friend has contributed $500 to help move our program forward.
