Empowering Women as Leaders Denver

Denver

Welcome, Denver!

We’re thrilled to announce the launch of our Denver Chapter, officially founded in 2025! This marks a major milestone in our national expansion, as EWL continues to grow beyond Texas. With five active chapters - Dallas, Fort Worth, Austin, Houston, and now Denver - we’re building momentum toward our goal of 10 chapters in 10 years.


Denver is already off to a strong start, with a newly formed board full of passionate women ready to serve, support, and mentor. We’re currently looking for, board members, sponsors, and interested mentors in the region. Help us spread the word and continue this incredible mission of empowering women through education and mentorship.

Our Sponsors

​Sponsors enable us to help a woman re-invent her life. Our mission is to support non-traditional age women in achieving their highest potential through scholarships, mentoring and networking. Your support enables us to broaden the impact Empowering Women as Leaders is making in women's lives.

Our STARs

Why do we call them our STARs?

​It has been said that STARS produce their own light and energy.

EWL STARs are deserving non-traditionally aged women who are provided the mentoring and education to help them ignite their own light and energy so they may shine bright in the future lives and careers.

Each STAR receives $1,500.00 per semester, plus mentoring. Scholarship amounts will vary with respective Chapters depending upon the relationship with their partner college/university.

We're looking for our next STARs! Sign up for our newsletter to get notified when applications open!
