Yesterday at Camp Diva Leadership Academy, we noticed she had her napkin note from Date With Dad Dinner and Dance. She mentioned that she takes it with her every day and her Dad doesn't even know! So sweet! #napkinnote #daddydaughter #datewithdadweekend #photooftheday #priceless #taketheleapandlead

WE BELIEVE Each girl, through active and positive intervention and support in their communities, can at an early and critical age build the skills, confidence, economic independence and collaborative spirit necessary to be the future leader and change agent of a sustainable, just world. #TakeTheLeapAndLead (at Richmond, Virginia)

If we reflect on our life experiences, we’ll probably notice that leadership opportunities really began when we were young…that’s also when our most influential life lessons in leadership were learned.

So help GIRLS FOR A CHANGE and help girls take the leap and lead...

There’s no denying that a woman’s relationship with her father is one of the most crucial in her life. The quality of that connection – good, damaged, or otherwise – powerfully impacts dads and daughters in a multiple of ways. A father’s effect on his daughter’s psychological well-being and identity is far-reaching. A daughter’s sense of self, for instance, is often connected to how her father views her. A girl stands a better chance of becoming a self-confident woman if she has a close bond with her father. Every girl and woman are reaching out for their father's love. #DATEWITHDADWEEKEND taken by Kamala Benjamin on March 13, 2015 #fatherhood #dads #daddydaughter #GFACfortheGIRLS #fatherdaughterdance in #jail #incarceration #inspiring #family Save the date Date With Dad Weekend March 17-19, 2017 #rvaevents #richmond #datewithdad #dwdrva (at Richmond City Justice Center)
