She Runs It, Diversity Best Practices and the inaugural members of #inclusivebrands/IDAC are proud to share results of our first year efforts with the marketing, media and tech community.

The She Runs It Foundation is committed to lifting the burden of education loan relief for women at critical stages of their careers. It is just one way the organization seeks to pave the way for more women to lead at every level of marketing, media and tech.

We are now accepting nominations for our Education Loan Relief, Working Mothers of the Year (and best companies for working mothers) and our Changing The Game Awards.

"A mentor is someone who allows you to see the hope inside yourself." Oprah Winfrey's words. The industry's need. Your calling? She Runs It operates the most robust mentoring program in marketing, media and tech -- currently about 350 mentoring pairs are actively engaged. We are seeking women (and men) who are willing to share an hour a month inspiring others to achieve their goals.

Now, the CEO of a growing startup in Chicago, Kristi looks back at lessons and hardships she has experienced over the years as critical pieces to her foundation.

The 19th Amendment was certified in August of 1920 and 8 million women voted for the first time on November 2 of that year. She Runs It had already been in existence for eight years as Advertising Women of New York.
