We're FULL!! We'll be posting the lineup of nonprofits this week, so stay tuned!

A quick message from our friends at Women's Empowerment:

"Hi there powerful ladies! Women's Empowerment is currently in much need of some new women's underwear for our students and graduates. Next time you're at Target or the mall, if you could grab an extra set it would be so helpful to us! If you want to help out, message me at [email protected] :) thanks a million!"

And if you're a non-profit that needs help/assistance, shoot us a note at [email protected], and we'll post it on this feed!

Thank you to all the non-profits and volunteers-to-be who attended last week's Match-Making Mixer! It was inspiring and energizing to see so many Sacramento women connecting to make our region, and our world, a better place.
