Empower & Inspire Event in Naperville
Join us at an afternoon tea to empower your community & learn about the world!

Megan Nakra is partnering with Meggie Zayas from
Reclaiming Me to host High Tea: A Discussion on Global Health Issues,
Saturday September 10th from 3-6 at 14 S Washington in Naperville.
Join us for an inspirational afternoon discussing topics that impact our
community. We all want to be a part of the solution, fostering change
in our local communities, but how can we do that? Where do we start?
Let's take on this daunting task together. Education is the first step
to creating change. As Malala has said "When the whole world is silent,
even one voice becomes powerful" so can you imagine what we could do
together?
We'll be hosting a panel of experts discussing topics including power based violence, eating disorder
and more. After the panel, the audience will have the opportunity to
ask questions to our experts. Tea and light appetizers will be served.
Please register at the Eventbrite link. Space is limited and guests will be checked in at the door.
