ChickSpeak

We’re honored to have a featured article in the Kappa Delta National newsletter and on their website. A big thank you to Priscilla and the rest of the communications team for such great coverage and praise of the work we are doing! Here’s a sneak-peek:

Christina Twomey, Zeta Tau-Washington and Lee, knew that she wanted to make a difference in the lives of women by helping them to strive for big dreams, strong values and success in the workplace. With this goal in mind, she created ChickSpeak.com, an online organization for young women. ChickSpeak.com’s mission is to stand out as the most entertaining and engaging reflection of women’s life in college – and to serve as a trusted source of support and information that will help young women stay healthy and grounded, and achieve great heights while in school and well after graduation.

“My goal was to create an accessible and engaging online resource for young women,” Christina explains. “I wanted ChickSpeak to provide them with the information, tools and real-life support needed in order to live lives filled with confidence, authenticity, passion and good judgment.” With so much emphasis on things like celebrity gossip – and with women being overwhelmed with so many unhealthy body images in countless media outlets - Christina felt strongly that there was a need for a Web site that focused on the strengths and inspiring aspects of women. “Beyond anything, I felt strongly that we, as young women, have SO much going for us and so much to share with each other,” she says. “Ultimately, I wanted to lead the charge in creating a Web site in which other women could truly be heard, share ideas on topics that matter most to them, and find support and strength as a result.”
