Empowerment is the brand value of WRA that resonates with me. Empowerment is defined as “the process of becoming stronger and more confident, especially in controlling one’s life and claiming one’s rights.” WRA creates the opportunities for women and girls to realize their dreams, to be proud of the person they are becoming and create their path to a brighter future.
