Women, Words, and Wisdom:
Advancing the wellbeing of New Jersey women

Women's Interactive Education Academy™
Featuring Women, Words, and Wisdom’s Panel of Power and Scholarship Program

Women, Words, and Wisdom is a new non-profit corporation. As 501(c)(3) donations made to it can be tax deductible.

The purpose of Women, Words and Wisdom is twofold:

Its mission is to:

  1. To inform women of current issues affecting them so they can make informed beneficial life choices and

2. To provide scholarships to college students in financial need to be used toward their college education.

Our mission is accomplished by holding an annual luncheon called the Panel of Power Celebrating Women where issues of the day are discussed by experts in the field. The event is highlighted by scholarship awards.

The gender wage gap persists, and women despite great progress only make on average 84 cents for every dollar a man makes.
It is less than that for Black, Hispanic, Native American & Asian Women.

Ida B. Wells Annual Award

Ida B. Wells, born into slavery, defied expectations. She was a teacher and journalist, who also co-owned a Memphis newspaper. When a friend was lynched, Wells risked her life and brought light to the wrongs. Her bravery came at a cost - her office was vandalized. Unfazed, she became a national voice against lynching, even co-founding the NAACP. Decades before Rosa Parks, Wells too refused to give up her seat. Though not receiving a Pulitzer Prize in her time, her relentless pursuit of truth earned a special citation in 2020.

Each year Women, Words, and Wisdom honors a woman who displays the traits and character of Ida B. Wells.
