The University of Central Florida Young Women Leaders Program is a mentoring program in which UCF women go to three local middle schools to pair up with “little sisters” and create a special bond with the girls. The program’s purpose is to guide emerging leaders and teach these 7th grade girls about respect, self-esteem, and leadership skills.
 
This Saturday, February 18, YWLP is having a “Slam Dunk for School Safety” Basketball Tournament at Faith Outreach Church in Oviedo. From 5:30 p.m. to 10:30 p.m., attendees to this first-ever YWLP fundraiser will have a blast participating in the tournament, socializing with community members and friends, eating delicious goods from the bake sale, listening to musical entertainment, and winning raffle prizes!
 
Admission is $5 per adult (12 & up), $3 per child (6 – 11) and FREE for children under the age of 5!
 
Come out and support your UCF Young Women Leaders and the wonderful middle school girls!

We hope to see all of you there!
