Embark Women is a non-profit organization where women can help each other grow and accomplish things in their fields. It is full of mentors, inspirations, and people trying to help others reach their goals.
Every month, Embark Women highlights an outstanding woman whose accomplished great things. The woman for January was Jessica Richardson. Ms. Richardson is the director of development at Hope Springs Water. They work to give clean water to areas where that is limited and, when people buy their water, all the proceeds go to fund wells in those areas. Jessica Richardson also works to bring feminine hygiene products to these places because young girls have stopped their education because of the lack of supplies that they have access to. She saw this as a problem and works to properly supply these women and keep them in school.
