On September 20th, The WIE Symposium - Women: Inspiration and Enterprise held its annual conference in NYC. WIE is a forum where exceptional women role models share their stories, time and inspiration to empower the other women and the next generation. It is like giving girls "girl power."This year's WIE Symposium hosts are three powerhouses: Arianne Huffington (who many of us admire) Donna Karan (who everyone wants as their gal pal), and Sarah Brown (who you want as a neighbor and best friend). The day included talks, lectures, a fashion show, awards and a panelist of speakers on politics, philanthropy, fashion and the arts.
The event is hosted by White Ribbon Alliance for Safe Motherhood, an organization that works to promote awareness about making pregnancy and childbirth safe to decrease maternal mortality.
This year a White Gown Auction is being held through CharityBuzz to benefit the White Ribbon Alliance. Some of the designers include Vera Wang, Marchesa, Catherine Malandrino, Chloe and more.
