Introduction
My name is Hunter Schisler and currently, I am a senior in high school. This website is part of my final “Take Action” project for a program called Global Scholars Diploma program, which is through the Columbus Council on World Affairs. I am required to start an independent project that takes a global issue and creates local action.
I decided to tackle the topic of “women and girls” as my global issue, in the facet of women in business. Business is a male dominated field and I wanted to create an area where women, specifically school-age girls, could go and learn about specific businesses run and/or owned by women, as well as a place to give them further information and ways to get involved.
Originally, I wanted to have days that students could go and visit these local businesses and where I could go to schools and highlight some state, national and international businesses. Unfortunately, due to the COVID-19 pandemic and restrictions I could not accomplish that so I have created this website.
Thank you for visiting this website and making strides to not only empower yourself, but every woman and girl interested in business.
