Our Mission & Vision

Our mission is to encourage, empower, and equip girls to be holistically healthy and strong: educationally, emotionally, socially, and physically.

Our vision is to see confident, healthy, holistic girls who fulfill their maximum potential in every area of their lives. The Ladies of Distinction Program is WIT’s largest program serving over 600 girls and 22 schools throughout Hampton Roads and Western Tidewater, Virginia. L.O.D. helps young ladies discover and operate in their full potential with consistent meetings and open and honest dialogue. Using our curriculum, meetings are focused on holistic health. Topics include: Developing and maintaining high self-esteem, healthy relationships, setting goals, overcoming obstacles, and living healthy lifestyles.

Each Year we host a Pink & Black Gala to honor local heros and outstanding Ladies of Distinction. Our ladies get to dress up in elegant attire, mix and mingle with LOD from across districts, and a few well deserving ladies who have applied to the Sandra B. Smith Scholarship are awarded and celebrated for their academic excellence. Your support will allow us to continue this work annually in the 757 Community!
