Co-chairs for the event are business leaders and Foundation supporters Sakina Rasheed Foster, Haynes and Boone, LLP Partner and Office Managing Partner and Veronica Torres Hazley, Founder of Hey Chica! 

Foster said: “We invite you to join us on April 30 as we listen, learn and are charged with uplifting our community and our colleagues. Starting with our #BESTSELF program, our community will share its collective wisdom and empower the next generation to become the best versions of themselves and leaders in their circles of influence.”

Their roles in academia, nonprofits, leadership and business have impacted thousands of women and girls and their families to create a better community for all. Plus, we’re honored to have Deborah Roberts of ABC be a part of the conversation.”
