Kiwanis Club Check Presentation to Ms. President US – 9/11/24
On September 11, 2024, Wilton Kiwanis was pleased to present a check in the amount of $3,500 to Ms. President US, represented by Amanda Cordano, Executive Director of Ms. President US, and Muskaan Kalra, this year’s Ms. President Wilton, to sponsor the Ms. President US bus trip to Hartford, Connecticut, where the middle school club members will experience Government in Action first hand.
Ms President US is a nonpartisan nonprofit dedicated to motivating and preparing girls to aim for the highest civic leadership positions. Through the Ms. President US program, girls in fourth through eighth grades learn about public speaking, diplomacy and listening skills, local, state and federal government, and women’s history while having an opportunity to meet and learn from exemplary female leaders. The program culminates with a campaign and election for Ms. President US. The girls prepare their campaigns which address at least one issue (for example, school start times, anti-bullying, social media). The winner is invited to accompany their First Selectperson at appearances and speaking engagements throughout the year until the next Ms. President US is elected.
Together with Ms. President US, we continue to inspire future generations to embrace leadership roles and make a lasting impact.
