Lunch for the Girls

2025 marks the 50th anniversary of Girls Inc. in Omaha and this year, Girls Inc. Girls are the Featured Speakers as they spotlight the organization’s journey – Past, Present, and Future – to showcase what it truly means to be Strong, Smart, and Bold.

Lunch for the Girls will be a celebration of growth, impact, and the unstoppable brilliance of our girls,” said Candias (Candi) Jones, Girls Inc. of Omaha CEO. “This luncheon is a tribute to 50 years of grit, grace, and generational impact. As we honor the past, we step boldly into a future of expansion, growth, and endless possibility—for every girl, and with every one of us.”

Lunch for the Girls has been the signature fundraising event for Girls Inc. since 2002. Past speakers include Malala Yousafzai, Barack Obama, Michelle Obama, Archbishop Desmond Tutu, Madeleine Albright, Barbara and Jenna Bush, Stacey Abrams, Gloria Steinem, Nikki Giovanni, Dr. Mae Jemison, and Amber Ruffin and Lacey Lamar. Previous featured speakers have been engaging and inspiring, but it’s the Girls Inc. girls who steal the show each year as they share their experiences during the program. This year, the girls take center stage as the featured speakers, welcoming Girls Inc. alumnae and honoring those who have played a role in helping Girls inc. of Omaha change the lives of thousands of girls since 1975. This 50th anniversary celebration promises to be the most memorable luncheon yet!
