Dear ITWomen Partners and Sponsors,

We are excited to launch our FutureForward! campaign to support scholarships to deserving girls pursuing a future in tech. We are inviting Celebrity CIOs, past scholarship sponsors, and members of our tech community to discuss trends and new products in a series of Zoom conversations. Please contact me for attendance space. There is no charge for attending our CIO webinars, but a donation for our 2020-2021 scholarship program is suggested. We also offer opportunities to name a scholarship after you or your company.

We are grateful for your longtime support, now more than ever. COVID has sadly affected so many families in South Florida. Your gifts bring hope to a deserving female high school senior who has shown leadership and hard work to be accepted into a college for a STEM degree in IT or Engineering. Her dreams are only limited by her resources. Often our scholars are the first ones in their family to attend college and they will start amidst the worst pandemic in modern history, facing a still sizeable gender gap in the industry. Your participation gives hope to narrowing that gap, and great joy to future tech leaders, one girl at a time.
