Shop Amazon Smile for Mother’s Day
I’m sure that everyone who supports WFA is also a huge fan of the way more and more companies are both public about their charitable giving and many are allowing their customers to have a say in where these donations are given. Amazon does this through their AmazonSmile program.

Power of the Purse: The Empowerment Project
Join us for an evening with the directors of The Empowerment Project, a film that challenges all of us to ask ourselves – “What would you do if you weren’t afraid to fail?” The WFA’s Northwest Arkansas Council will host a screening of the film followed by a Q&A with the directors themselves. A silent auction will kick-off the evening and feature hand-painted purses designed by local artists. Proceeds will allow all 8th grade girls in NWA to see this impactful film.
