This weekend, hundreds of girls gathered for the Stanford Women in Business's Young Leaders Summit. Ears for Years founder Grace O'Brien spoke to two hundred high school girls about how important their voices are. Grace told her own story, starting from her inspiration to start Ears for Years. She discussed what it's like to be a young girl in the business world, highlighting how important it is for the youth to use their passion and originality to find lasting solutions. The girls were curious about different aspects of Ears for Years, and asked Grace what it was like to be a young girl managing a nonprofit organization. Grace explained that her age didn't define her path, and that her youthful optimism is actually a strength.
"Your age, gender, or background don't define where you are going," Grace told the girls enthusiastically. "Be crazy enough to believe that you can make a change in the world."
