Women of Tomorrow Mentor & Scholarship Program

The inspiration and design for Women of Tomorrow is based on our Founder's, Jennifer Valoppi, college years studying Psychology of Women. Jennifer says, “The research was clear - the real problem with true equality for women is not so much that men think that women are inferior, but that women agreed. The women who do make it to the top like being the only ones there and don’t do anything to help other women along.” Studies show that research still holds true today. Jennifer wanted to change that. So in 1997, while she was the main news anchor at NBC 6 in Miami, Jennifer designed a unique program for highly accomplished professional women to reach out to at-risk girls. With the support of then NBC 6 President & General Manager Don Browne, a long time supporter of women and minorities in the workplace and of mentoring as a tool for empowering people, Women of Tomorrow was created. Since then we have served 11,000 at-risk high school girls.
