B) Take Your Daughter To Work Day is April 26, 2002
This event was started by the Ms. Foundation to help support and encourage girls by getting communities and families involved in making a positive impact on their lives. They suggest that adults take their daughters and other girls to work with them for the day in the hopes that it would expose them to new opportunities and help them feel more confident and valued.

This year's Global Town Hall is on April 11th at a webcast near you. It is expected that tens of thousands, maybe more, will participate simultaneously and will engage in the largest conversation ever staged in live audiences and interactively on the web (last year, over 200 locations were involved, with audiences in 15 countries).
This year's speakers include Paula Zahn (Anchor, CNN), Charlene Barshefsky (former US Trade Rep); Anne Mulcahy (CEO, Xerox); David Gergen (Kennedy School of Government); Kathleen Sullivan (Dean, Stanford Law School); Sung-Joo Kim (leading business woman of Korea); Debra Lee (CEO, Black Entertainment Television)...and our own President and Founder, Rayona Sharpnack!
