About empowerHER UK
empowerHER is a charity with a very specific mission — to empower, support, and connect girls and young women who have experienced the loss of a mother. We provide in-person events that remind girls they are not alone in their grief, and a unique one-on-one mentor program with positive role models from the community who help teach, “loss is survivable.”
Founder Cara Belvin was nine years old when her mother Kit died of breast cancer and formed empowerHER out of the gratitude she had for all the layers of support her family received growing up. Today, empowerHER operates with a lean staff and thousands of volunteers from around the globe and all programs remain at no charge to the family.
