Distinguished Young Women
have been #SoMobile for 62 years!
Founded in 1958, Distinguished Young Women is a free program that encourages participants to reach their full individual potential. The program’s mission is to empower young women by providing more than $1 billion in scholarship opportunities, developing their self-confidence in a positive peer environment and participating in Life Skills Workshops that prepare them for success after high school.
Each year representatives from all 50 states descend on Mobile, the birthplace of the program, for National Finals and when they do, they get a full dose of Southern hospitality!
The 2019 National Finals will be held June 27-29th at the Mobile Civic Center Theater.
Get your tickets now by calling 251-438-3621.
