Our Purpose
The Fourth Annual Power of Us is a Gala that supports a charity of our Events Director's choice. This year, the charity the Power of Us will be donating to is Brittany's Hope. The idea of this event arose in 2018 by our former Women in Business President Shaye Smartt. She wanted to increase WIB's involvement with the community at large and build on WIB's community service pillar. This year we held our black-tie, celebratory gala on January 21st, 2022 in person at Heritage Hall in the HUB-Robeson Center.
With the Penn State Communities help we were able to raise over $3600 for Brittany's Hope and had over 250 attendees!

Last year's Power of Us event supported Gigi's Playhouse. Due to COVID restrictions, this Gala was turned into a week long initiative, where members got to attend events with those who are a part of GiGi's Playhouse. Fund were raised by doing merchandise sales and raffle baskets.
THANK YOU TO OUR SPONSORS!
