In incredibly exciting and empowering news, former First Lady of the United States Michelle Obama will headline an important virtual event, hosted by actress Sofia Wylie.
POPSUGAR founder Lisa Sugar said, “When I started POPSUGAR 15 years ago, I wanted it to be a place where young women could come to feel happy, strong, and confident — where they could be their best self, whoever that may be. Tonight, I’m so excited to see that mission come to life in such a significant way with POPSUGAR’s Girl Talk: Knowledge Is Our Superpower, as we create change together and open the door to infinite possibilities for girls everywhere.”
I hope you can tune in for this noteworthy event, which features Michelle Obama and the Girls Opportunity Alliance, and enjoy inspiring conversations from trailblazers like Marsai Martin and Maitreyi Ramakrishnan, a special musical performance from Kelly Clarkson, and so much more in support and celebration of girls’ education and empowerment across the world.”
The event is taking place at 9 pm ET/ 6 pm PT in the US, which is 12 pm AEDT for Aussie audiences.
POPSUGAR is proud to donate $50,000 to the Girls Opportunity Alliance and will match donations to the Girls Opportunity Alliance Fund dollar for dollar up to an additional $50,000 starting with the event and until April 2.
