You found us.
Sometimes it feels like a small celebration should be had each time a new person finds us. With each new subscriber, each contributor, and each intern applicant, there are real people in a 1,200 square foot office sitting at their desks in NE Minneapolis doing a little dance around the office. (It's true.)
Why? Because with every person who responds positively to our magazine and the ideology of the nonprofit organization that runs it, we make a bigger impact in the culture that surrounds and influences young women in our society.
What does that look like?
- Greater respect for women's voices, and affirmation of their talents
- Greater opportunity for women entering the working world
- Broader understanding of differences through story-sharing
- Increased access to the arts, by its integration with media
- Healthier portrayal of women in media, and thereby,
- Greater self-confidence for teenage and young adult women.
"What can I do to help?" is a common question we hear when people discover our organization. Here are some ideas:
1. Start a Mentorship Giving Circle
2. Host a "Picturing Everyday Beauty" Event
3. Buy copies of the magazine as holiday gifts for your best friend, neice, aunt, mother, grandmother, teacher, cousin, and neighbor.
4. Submit your story or artwork
5. Link to our Web site from your personal blog or your organization's Web site
