The Anchorage ATHENA Society promotes leadership in young women. Each year, the Anchorage ATHENA Society awards scholarships each year for local girls (ages 14-18) to attend the Camp $tart-Up business camp, an eleven day program designed to teach entrepreneurial skills and encourage attendees to become self-sufficient young businesswomen, as well as Alaska Business Week, a business management program, hosted by the Alaska State Chamber.
During Camp $tart-Up and Alaska Business Week, young women discover how their interests and dreams translate into enterprise and independence. Scholarship recipients meet successful business owners, learn leadership and business skills, then apply those skills in life.
