Join us for an evening that brings us together around possibility.
The Elevate Her Gala gathers business, technology, and civic leaders from across the DC Metro region for a night of conversation, celebration, and purpose. Guests arrive for a cocktail reception, share dinner, take their chance in exclusive raffles, and lean in together during a live auction and paddle raise, all in support of building what comes next for our region.
Ideas are exchanged. Connections are made. That night, we will increase access to the experiences that help girls discover, persist, and succeed in STEM.
Your presence matters. By joining Elevate Her, you are part of a night that builds momentum and invests in possibility—shared with people who believe in action and in the future it creates.
