Celebrating International Women’s Day #IWD2016
Today, women around the world are celebrating the achievements of women for International Women’s Day.
As an organization focused on women of color, Walker’s Legacy is proud to join in this effort by bringing attention to the successes of diaspora women in business.
We would also like to take this time to formally announce our international cities expansion.
This year, Walker’s Legacy will be expanding internationally with programming in Lagos, Nigeria, Nairobi, Kenya and Johannesburg, South Africa.
Together, as women throughout the diaspora, we have the ability to change the world.
Like the visionary behind our organization Madam C. J. Walker, we are so proud to bring empowerment and connection to women around the world in our central mission to continue to inspire women in business and beyond!
