Sadie Nash Leadership Project’s mission is to strengthen, empower, and equip young women as agents for change
in their lives and in the world. By increasing the participation of women in social, political, and economic decision-making, SNLP seeks to question and redefine the nature of leadership and to promote perspectives and

“Although the numbers speak for themselves, they don’t tell the true

CELEBRATING 10 YEARS OF YOUNG WOMEN’S LEADERSHIP
Sadie Nash Leadership Project launched its first summer in 2002 with just 16 girls. In 2012 we served over 400
and were proud to celebrate our 10th anniversary with a number of exciting events and special initiatives:
Garden Party with Tina Fey
The highpoint of the anniversary year
was our sold-out Garden Party with
Tina Fey on October 1st. High school
sophomore Latoya Logan and college
freshman Ramelcy Uribe interviewed
Ms. Fey about her life and leadership
in front of a crowd of 350 guests. Here’s
Tina with our 10 “unstoppable” young
leaders (one from each of our 10 years)
in a Sadie Nash tradition: “falling boulder” pose.
Meet the Unstoppable
SNLP premiered 10 short films profiling 10 “unstoppable” leaders from

each year of Sadie Nash. Recognizing
that their leadership is rooted in the
strength of their individual identities, each young person chose a title to describe their personal power. In one
film, Aharisi, “The Motivator” says, “At times you might not see your own greatness., but it’s still there.” To see
all ten inspirational films, go to www.sadienash.org/unstoppable.
Leadership Lab
On August 7th, NY City Council Speaker Christine Quinn joined five young Sadie Nash leaders at the Summer
Institute in a conversation about leadership and issues facing young people and women today. The panel was
followed by How Do They Do It? an interactive session led by young women on SNLP’s unique model. The event
ended with guided tours of Summer Institute classes.
“SNLP not only aided me in achieving a high school diploma and being accepted to a
top tier university, it also allowed me to fully understand my potential…and the potential that one single program could have in transforming the life of an inner city
girl like myself. SNLP simply cared…cared for my success as a student…and cared
for my success as a growing woman…It has been my life raft in surprising ways.”
-Alumna, class of 2002 - 10 years later
10-YEAR IMPACT STUDY
SNLP is a proven-effective, high-performing, and
high-impact young women’s leadership program
that has clearly changed the lives of over 1,000
low-income young women. Many of these women
are now out in the world as attorneys, PhD candidates, political aspirants, and SNLP staff and Board
members.

(percent)
participants from the first three program cohorts (n
= 45; reflecting a 77.6% response rate) and a demographically-comparable comparison (“control”) group of age-matched women who attended New York City
public high schools (n = 45). All participants completed psychometrically-validated questionnaire measures and
open-ended questions via an online survey.
Alumnae are more likely to be motivated toward activism and social action, to
oppose gender inequality, and endorse
feminist ideals.
Key Findings and Conclusions: Overall, there was strong and
compelling evidence for the positive impact of SNLP over the
course of 10 years. Empirical support was particularly convincing that alumnae are more civically engaged, motivated
toward social justice, and socially and politically aware than
their peers at up to ten years after participation in SNLP.
Nashers
Alumnae were significantly more likely to:
• Engage in activism, volunteerism, and political activities at various community levels
• Support egalitarianism, social justice, interpersonal tolerance, and compassion
• Possess civic values oriented toward racial
understanding, community leadership, and
participatory action
• Seek to help and improve their immediate
community and broader society
• Strive for personal growth and achievement
• Benefit from the use of their own coping
skills and resources

2012 Financial Snapshot
SNLP has earned a strong record of financial health and stability, having closed 10 years with a balanced budget,
while our budget has grown on average 25% each year. We began FY13 with a fund balance of almost 5 months’
operating cash. Additionally, in response to the 2008 economic crisis we intentionally and successfully diversified our funding portfolio by more than doubling the proportion of individual giving since 2008 to 35% (from
15%). We have also been able to increase revenue from fee-for-service partnership classes. With this record of
financial growth, SNLP has been able to steadily increase the number of girls served each year, and on average,
80% of income is devoted solely to program expenditures.
In addition, due to the outstanding generosity of our friends and donors during the 10th Anniversary we
were able to establish a new “Innovation Fund.” This board-designated strategic opportunity reserve, valued at
$550,000 (pledges and receipts), will ensure fiscal stability for the next decade and help us stay creative in our
approach to young women’s leadership.

Looking Forward
Saturation Model
This is a newly-designed model in which a cohort of girls will attend a Sadie Nash class for their entire four years
of high school, while an additional class of 9th graders will be added each year – thus saturating the school environment with young women’s leadership. Launched fall 2012, Saturation is in its first year at Renaissance Charter High School in Jackson Heights, Queens and is taught by a Sadie Nash alumna. In fall 2013 we plan to add a
second school while also adding the second 9th grade at Renaissance – thus tripling numbers served in one year.
Replication
Starting this year, SNLP will begin sharing our proven-effective model with other organizations both regionally
and from around the country, with the long-term goal of creating a movement of empowered young women
making change in their communities and beyond. Initial “early adopter” partners will receive our newly designed Sisterhood ModelTM training with substantial ongoing support free of charge. Subsequent trainings will
use a fee-for-service model. Trainings and site observations will be led by SNLP staff, participants, and alumnae.
Leadership Fellowship
This hands-on 8-month fellowship allows one young alumna to intern 24 hours per week at the SNLP office.
The Fellow builds youth work, communications, fundraising, and overall non-profit management skills, and
receives a generous stipend and full benefits. Leadership Fellowship will create a strong pipeline of young women’s leadership both in and beyond the organization. It is our hope to create additional fellowships to increase
opportunities for low-income young women in this crucial post-college career building stage.
Comprehensive college support
SNLP seeks to increase its college prep services through multiple SAT prep sessions, college trips, financial
aid workshops for families, peer advisement, and one-on-one college counseling. Furthermore, we recently
launched Leadership Scholars, a new after-school program linking young women’s developing leadership with a
college education by increasing college knowledge, motivation, and access.
Generosity is LEADERSHIP
Our deepest thanks go to this incredible list of donors and friends.
