Still thinking about the incredible support shown by our PEARLS community at Inspired to Lead. 💙

Because of YOU, we not only unlocked our $50,000 match, we exceeded our goal and made an even greater impact for girls across our community.

We are endlessly grateful to everyone who showed up, gave generously, and continues to believe in the power of PEARLS and the girls we serve.

Join us in congratulating Amari Stowers, this year’s Alumna Chrysalis Award recipient, honoring a graduate who lives out the values of Personal Responsibility, Empathy, Awareness, Respect, Leadership, and Support!

Inspired by the confidence she saw in other girls at Milwaukee College Preparatory School, Amari joined PEARLS and found her voice, built lasting relationships, and experienced true sisterhood. As the oldest sibling, she often felt pressure to be strong for others but PEARLS gave her space to grow, be vulnerable, and feel supported.

Today, she serves as a school counselor at Rufus King High School, supporting students academically, socially, and emotionally. A proud member of Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority, Inc. and a PEARLS Alumnae Ambassador, Amari remains committed to uplifting young women and giving back to the community that helped shape her.

Beth and Greg Myers were honored last Thursday at Inspired to Lead as recipients of the Gerry Howze Legacy Award, recognizing a lifetime of leadership, dedication to youth development, and unwavering support of girls.

The award is named in honor of Gerry Howze, the late Executive Director of PEARLS. Gerry’s legacy is one of “authenticity, love and leadership.” She motivated those around her to discover their untapped potential creating a culture of empowerment for girls.

PEARLS was well served having Beth on our Board of Directors from 2017-2023 and specifically as our Board Chair from 2021-2023. Greg has been pivotal in stewarding more men to understand and support PEARLS mission.

Join us in celebrating Beth and Greg and the lasting difference they’ve made for PEARLS and the girls we serve!
