Character and Leadership Grants
The Empower Board of Directors is still developing our Character and Leadership Grant process.
Empower’s goal will be to provide grants for Upper Valley girls lacrosse teams to bring in speakers that amplify “healthy voices” with a focus on development of character, leadership skills, team building, and the whole-player. Previously, Empower has successfully used several local speakers that include:
- Brooklyn Raney http://www.brooklynraney.com/
- Cindy Pierce: https://cindy-pierce.com/
- Nancy Turkington
- Rebecca Nash, DPT. Woodstock, VT.
