We honor the life and legacy of Gloria Steinem, a trailblazing journalist, activist, and lifelong advocate for women and girls.

For more than six decades, Gloria Steinem used her voice to challenge inequality, expand opportunities for women, and inspire generations to believe in their own power to create change.

At Gwen’s Girls, we know that progress happens when girls and women are seen, heard, supported, and empowered. We are grateful for the path Gloria Steinem helped pave and for the generations of girls and women who will continue moving that work forward.

May her legacy continue to inspire us to raise our voices, stand for equity, and create a world where every girl has the opportunity to thrive.

Rest in power, Gloria Steinem. 🕊️
