Women Founders/Funders That Make the World Better
An Evening with Founders Turning Purpose into Powerful Companies

Get ready for an unforgettable night at one of New York’s most historic private residences—formerly a yacht club, now a stunning home with a riverfront backyard that sets the scene for connection, inspiration, and impact.

Join us on June 26 for an intimate gathering hosted by Coco Sellman, founder of A Force for Good, and Wendy Diamond, founder of the Women’s Entrepreneurship Day Organization (WEDO). Together, we're spotlighting extraordinary women founders who are building bold businesses that not only generate revenue—but create real change.

Here’s what’s in store:
Drinks + Light Bites in a lush backyard setting with incredible views
A Dynamic Panel featuring powerhouse women founders who are:

Solving big, real-world problems
Generating revenue and creating jobs
Fundraising and/or bootstrapping with grit
Scaling with soul and staying true to their purpose

These trailblazing women are proving that entrepreneurship is one of the most powerful tools to uplift communities, drive innovation, and lead with empathy and strength.

You’ll hear the real stories behind their missions, growth strategies, and pivotal moments. Walk away inspired—and armed with tangible takeaways to grow a purpose-driven business of your own.

Whether you're a founder, investor, or a champion of women-led ventures, this evening is your chance to connect with a community that believes in building businesses that matter.
