Like a monarch transforming from a caterpillar to a butterfly ~ Empowering young girls to soar on their journey into adulthood
What an incredible night! The EmpowerHER Dinner that was held November 13, 2025 brought together our community for an intimate and inspiring multi-course dining experience crafted by some of Dallas’ most talented female chefs. The evening was filled with celebration, connection, and purpose, highlighted by moving moments and live entertainment. Thanks to the generosity of our supporters, we advanced our mission to provide single-gender, college-preparatory education for underserved girls in Dallas County.
