Many organizations, big name public figures, and regular Americans stress the importance of empowering women in the workplace. Though necessary, the conversation rarely acknowledges the additional struggles women of color face when trying to grow professionally, particularly in the tech industry. That's why Silicon Valley-based lawyer, recipient of the Jefferson Award, the Nobel Prize for public service, and passionate humanitarian Raye Mitchell started three programs dedicated to elevating women and girls of color so they can enter college and the workforce with everything they need to succeed.

Black Fathers Present for our Girls
Black Fathers Matter for Black Girls. What will you be doing to celebrate Black Fathers and Sons Who are Present for our Black Girls?
The 20th anniversary of the Million Man March on Washington D.C. reminds us to take stock and celebrate our Black fathers and sons that are present in the lives of our woman and girls everyday.
If we want to save our Black girls, we need to also save our Black fathers and our Black sons. The concept may be too daunting for some and quite alien to others. We cannot risk leaving our girls emotionally wounded and wanting, and intellectually and sociologically impaired when fathers go missing.
You really need not ask why we should celebrate our Black fathers as part of our celebration of Black woman and girls, but here is why. Black families need fathers. #BlackFathersMatter. Our children need Black fathers present in their lives. I work with young girls from all economic backgrounds to increase access to educational and life opportunities for them. In 2014, the Oprah Winfrey Network aired a summer series called "Daddyless Daughters" that focused on women's relationships with absent or uninvolved fathers and I see firsthand the difference for those children of having a father who is present and engaged.
