Proceed from DeDe’s Women’s History Month Kickoff Luncheon benefit The DeDe McGuire Foundation, the initiative helps create stronger families & communities by strengthening the role of women. During the luncheon the 10 amazing women whom were recipients of the $2,500.00 “DeDe’s- Do- Over” Scholarship were honored & highlights were shared of how this 2nd chance has impacted their lives. DeDe McGuire is definitely helping make the most of 2nd chances!

Part of keeping women's history alive is to talk about their stories, whether the conversation is about a well-known woman or an unsung hero! The empowerment that fill the room was amazing. There were so many phenomenal women in one room who are building legacies and making history. DeDe’s Women’s History Month Kickoff Luncheon is definitely a conversation that should not be missed & this celebratory kickoff vital in trailblazing the momentum as we celebrate women this month.

I would like to give a special shout out to all of the women who attended that organically bonded while exchanging life experiences, prayers, hugs, laughs, selfies, business ideas and encouraging one another to embrace their power.
