Liz Lidgett co-founder 100+ Chicks for Charity |
My 4th grade year, one of my best friends asked me to join her Girl Scout Junior troop. When I decided to become a Girl Scout I thought that it was going to be just a fun way for girls to get together and braid each other’s hair. Nothing important would come from it but it would be fun...
What really happened is that I had a fantastic year where I met great girl friends but also learned the importance of girls working together to create an impact.
Years later that same lesson is what stayed with me when a group of women decided to create the 100+ Women Who Care and the 100+ Chicks for Charity. Our members come from all walks of life and different financial backgrounds. As individuals we feel that it can be difficult to make a very large impact, but as a group we have the ability to contribute to the growth of our community in ways that we never thought possible.
During my year as a Girl Scout, I did end up learning how to french braid... but I also learned so many more valuable lessons that have stayed with me to this day.
