Women’s Leadership Institute

WLI is for undergraduate students interested in a weekend-long, intensive leadership experience to enhance participants’ leader identity and leadership capacity. Rooted in the belief that leadership is learned through experience, education, and reflection, WLI focuses on leadership development, creates a dynamic learning environment, and invites FSU students to learn with and from FSU faculty, staff, and alumni. All are welcome to participate.

This Great Give, you can further WLI's impact by donating to its endowment at the Center for Leadership and Service, ensuring the program's growth and success for future undergraduate students at Florida State University. Your contributions will support WLI's expansion into a multi-year cohort program, offering deeper connections, curated experiences, and personalized leadership development tailored to each participant's passions and potential.

By supporting WLI, you are investing in the future of leaders who will go on to make significant contributions in their fields and communities. Expanding WLI will allow for more comprehensive mentorship opportunities, increased access to leadership workshops, and the development of innovative projects that address real-world challenges. This growth will not only benefit the participants but also create a ripple effect, positively influencing the broader community and fostering a culture of empowerment and resilience.

Thank you for your support. The seeds sown through this program will continue to blossom into strong, resilient leaders, each one flowering with strength, conviction, and kindness. Together, we can continue to empower and inspire the next generation of change-makers.
