Rowan Hamilton (’26), leader of the Empowering Women’s Education Worldwide club, explains her club’s purpose to a student at her stand Sept. 8. Hamilton said her club’s goal is to bring students together to advocate for women’s access to education by running charity bake sales and other fundraising events. “You’re able to help women and work with people who have similar mindsets to you to create real change that is lasting,” Hamilton said. “We’ll be able to connect with those girls in Jordan and Indonesia and get a wider perspective on the world and what’s going on.”
