We see a world where young women and non-binary folks can confidently apply for opportunities they are excited about. Where they can persist in fields they are passionate about whether it’s engineering, finance, fashion or history. Where they can exceed expectations and rise to leadership roles. Can you see it? Are you ready to make it a reality? Each year we support undergraduate students as they work hard to develop their professional skills and grow their confidence. Through our core mentorship program Bridge and our alumni program Beyond these future professionals build a strong support network, develop foundational skills and gain access to unique professional opportunities. Help us continue to provide this impactful support by sponsoring a student for the 2024-2025 academic year. By sponsoring a student you will not only support them on their journey, you will follow along to see exactly how we are developing skills and building confidence. Join us this year and see the future of the workforce.

"EWAAB is one of the best things I could’ve accomplished for myself. I stepped out of my comfort zone countless of times as a mentee and mentor. My soft skills & public speaking skills improved a lot! EWAAB made me more confident and fearless." Meet Lotus Uong, who recently graduated from McGill University, receiving her Bachelor of Science in Physiology. She started her mentorship journey at EWAAB in 2020 as a mentee and continued as a Primary Mentor in 2021. "I’ve networked and worked with women/non-binary students from Caltech University, Oxford, Texas A&M, McGill & CEOs. I am currently a chief assistant at a newly opened pediatric clinic, working alongside incredible women physicians. And, one day, I’ll be a doctor too! "

Happy Juneteenth from the EWAAB community to you!
