Educational Loan Grant
Your support fuels brighter futures. Every dollar raised goes toward providing
educational loan grants for students who need financial assistance to continue their studies.
Weโve set a goal of $2 million, and together we can make higher education accessible for all.
Be part of the journey.
Our mission is championed by several leading companies who support us as Corporate Alliance Partners.
We believed in the power of women long before they had a seat at the table.
Established in 1912 โ eight years before the 19th amendment was ratified โ as the โLeague of Advertising Womenโ, She Runs It has evolved to be a global community of 6,000+ members across more than 40 states and 12 countries. Subsequently named Advertising Women of New York, we ultimately became She Runs It in 2016 in recognition of the fact that our community had grown beyond just New York, and our industry had expanded beyond just Advertising.
What Our Members Say
The most powerful evidence of our success in lifting women to their full potential is expressed in their own words.
The 2019 Multi-Cultural Bootcamp was the event that really kicked off my participation with She Runs It. The in person experience was extremely engaging from the keynote to the panelists to the networking ice breakers.

My advice to both existing and new members, is to take advantage of everything you can- whether it’s virtual, whether it’s in person. Because you’re always going to take something away from it, whether it’s some sort of new industry technology, something self help, something in meditation, something just for yourself.

I was a new mom feeling relatively isolated in my career at that moment, and started the mentorship program and met some wonderful women, made incredible connections, developed friendships, created bridges with other companies and jobs and all sorts of stuff. It’s a wonderful community.

I have been a member of She Runs It for about two years now, and my advice to members, I would say, honey, run, don’t walk and join today. She Runs It is truly an amazing organization because it pours into its members and empowers women to go out and be great, and that’s more than you can ask for.
