✨ Leadership. Service. Community.

At our Fall Leadership Event, we were honored to hear from two incredible women veterans, Angela Cincis and Loree Draude, as they shared their experiences serving our country, leading in traditionally male-dominated spaces, and carrying those lessons into the next chapters of their careers.

Angela, a Major in the Army National Guard and 22-year military veteran, and Loree, one of the first women to fly combat jets in the U.S. Navy, spoke candidly about their journeys as women veterans and the importance of ensuring women who have served are supported long after their military service ends.

The conversation was a powerful reminder of the role we can all play from creating career and leadership opportunities to providing mentorship, building strong networks, and recognizing the incredible skills women veterans bring to our workplaces and communities.

Thank you to Angela and Loree for sharing your stories, and to everyone who joined us for this meaningful conversation!

☀️📚 From summer camp to back-to-school, we’re celebrating our grantee partners helping girls explore STEM all year long!

Through a three-year grant, Girlstart is expanding its hands-on after-school and summer camp STEM programming to new schools in Waltham, Somerville, and Woburn. 🔬✨

We’re also proud to support Girl Scouts of Eastern Massachusetts as they expand STEM ON-THE-GO, bringing hands-on STEM activities directly to Girl Scout troops and summer camps across Eastern Massachusetts.

As students head back to the classroom this week, we’re excited to see these opportunities continue to inspire curiosity, confidence, and a love of STEM. 💜
