Girls Who Print Evolves to Global Nonprofit

Girls Who Print, the world’s largest network of women in print and graphic communications, is now formally a global 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, according to a news release.

Girls Who Print was founded as a LinkedIn group in 2009 as a LinkedIn group and quickly became a grassroots initiative supporting women in the traditionally male-dominated printing industry. The transition to nonprofit status represents a crucial step forward for the international network, reaffirming its dedication to fostering diversity, innovation and empowerment within print, according to the news release.

The success of Girls Who Print is driven by a dedicated and visionary leadership team:

• Deborah Corn, executive director, is recognized for her transformative efforts to elevate the visibility and impact of women in the print sector worldwide.
• Kelly Mallozzi, vice president and program director, a sales coach and advocate of women in print, mentorship, career development and meaningful community engagement.
• Pat McGrew, managing director, is an industry expert utilizing decades of experience to advance the organization’s mission and support professional growth among its members.

“Our evolution from a LinkedIn group to the world’s largest network of women in print, and now a nonprofit organization, demonstrates the power of shared purpose and community,” Corn is quoted in the release. “We are positioned to further expand our global reach and create more opportunities for women to excel through all stages of their careers.”

Girls Who Print’s nonprofit initiative comes with a new membership platform, which provides members with exclusive access to the following:

• Educational webinars and professional development workshops for every experience level.
• Strategic networking forums, regional support, and online events.
• Mentorship opportunities and leadership training programs.
• Career opportunities, industry resources, and skill building.

Membership is open to women and allies worldwide. Sponsorship opportunities enable organizations to align with the movement and enhance their brand visibility. Tax-deductible contributions, including memberships, sponsorships and donations, help sustain Girls Who Print programs and initiatives.
