“You Are My Inspiration” Has Launched

Posted by: gretchen on May 8, 2008 |

You Are My InspirationStep Up Women’s Network (suwn.org) is an organization that works with underserved teen girls in NYC, Chicago, and Los Angeles where roughly 90% of them live below the poverty line. Recently, they launched youaremyinspiration.org, an online interactive gift house that will send 100% of funds raised back to their teen programs.

The site allows women to honor a mentor, friend, colleague, relative etc for her positive impact. The honoree receives a variety of gifts, while the honorer gets to chose how her donation is spent: SAT prep classes, college field trips, teacher stipends, program equipment. Women who make a positive difference in their community get honored, while the gift pays forward to the next generation. Very cool!
