Take Our Daughters To The Polls
With so many glass ceilings shattered, we take for granted that little girls know they can grow up to be whatever they want. But according to a new study, one in four children believes it is illegal for women and minorities to hold the office of president. And one in three attribute the lack of female, African-American and Latino presidents to racial and gender bias among voters.
The same study also found that girls who attributed the lack of female presidents to discriminati… Continue

I would like to echo Stacy's comment about the opportunity to participate in the WHP. It is an amazing opportunity to exchange ideas with other women who may or may share the same perspective as yourself. How refreshing this is to be able to do this and be thought none the lesser for it!
Thanks for the being the catalyst for change and I look forward to the bright future for the WHP and its participants.

I have met some wonderful women here in this network. Women who are working for a common cause; women who will help one another with no expectations; women who will support one another and pray for each other without ever meeting one another. Strong women, caring women, women who are making a difference in this world. No one cause is greater than the other, and we work together as equals to get things done. What a wonderful thing to be a part of.
So, thank you for all that you do. I look forward to watching and participating as The White House Project grows and changes.
Sincerely,
Stacy Bayton
Almost two years ago I joined the WHP and can say that the Leadership training in NYC changed my life. When do i get to come work for you?!

It is amazing to see the incredible diversity on this site and it is even more incredible now that you are here! I wrote a poem to welcome you and look forward to hearing from you.
Warmest Regards,

Women Rule!
Warmest welcome from a sister and friend,
Who will stand with you in spirit to the very end.
What a powerful witness you have to share,
So know that this sister will lift you up with prayers.
Be encouraged and hopeful in every way,
Feel free to whisper, sing or shout joyfully throughout the day:
Women rule!
If we band together in one clear voice,
We can crescendo together in a joyful noise.
The melody of women, who collaborate and work together,
Will send a resounding message that will last forever.
Women rule!
PS: Please feel free to grace my page with your words of wisdom, a poem, a thought or even a kind word of encouragement for all women to see. Blessings to you now and always!
Thank you so very much for bringing your insight to all of us. It has been amazing to be a part of this! I will most deffinetly be using what I have learned from the training! Michigan loves you and all you have done for us!
You are a true Pioneer. In just a few days, so many women have jumped on the band wagon and the excitement regarding TWHP Venture has grown, and continues to grow!
2008 is such a significant recruitment year, not only because of the "changes" that are about to occur, but because many women are ready to showcase how they have taken control and made a difference.
It has been written, voices are being heard, we are charting our courses and the world is about to be Positively Impacted!
Thank you for implementing such an awesome process and adding value when others we too intimidated to do so.
Best regards,
Sharmina T. Ellis
