'Women's Print HERstory Month' coincides with Women's History Month to align the telling of stories that empower and inspire the fierce fabulous females of print, as well as young women and students entering the industry or considering print as a career.
Launched in 2019, Women's Print HERstory Month returns March 2022, and Girls Who Print is mobilizing the women in the industry. This year, to coincide with the relaunch of the free Girls Who Print mentoring program we are calling on the women of print to join in and share their best career advice through social media, using the hashtag #PrintHERstoryMonth.
"Mentorship is a crucial part of workforce and career development, and it is so much more than that," says Kelly Mallozzi, Principle at Success in Print and Girl #2 at Girls Who Print. She continues, "Mentorship builds stronger communities, stronger relationships and fosters a stronger industry. As women re-enter and re-establish themselves in the workforce, Girls Who Print is here to guide and support, provide networking help, share industry job opportunities, and create dynamic, productive, and empowering mentor/mentee partnerships."
Deborah Corn, Girl #1 at Girls Who Print, says: "This year we are mission driven to grow our mentoring program into a global resource for women at all stages of their careers. Helmed by Kelly, our Chief Mentor Matcher, I have no doubt our goal will be reached and exceeded. I encourage all the women reading this to visit the site, sign up, and for everyone to share the program information with their colleagues and connections."
In addition to the mentoring program, Girls Who Print has launched a SWAG store just in time to get geared up for March. Christine Alexander, Owner of Creative Squirrel Studio, created the site, designed the logo and the merchandise - with more to come.
