How does The Women's Conference give back to the community?

The Women’s Conference is A Conference with a Conscience. Under the leadership of Maria Shriver and the guidance of our Board of Directors, The Women’s Conference has six far-reaching women’s empowerment programs – WE Educate, WE Invest, WE Connect, WE Act, WE Inspire and WE Honor. Proceeds from the Conference directly support these programs to finance dreams and invest in entrepreneurs, lift people out of poverty, help end the cycle of violence, send young women to college, build community centers, playgrounds and gardens, honor courage, wisdom and strength, and inspire people by the remarkable history of their state.
