Quotes

"We are here to tell the story of our city. Through the women who built it. The women who shape it. The women who lead it. The women who identify issues that matter and challenge the status quo. We are intergenerational. We are every race. And religion. And neighborhood. And income level. And sector. Our Miami is strong. It is beautiful. It is diverse. And it is female." The motto Fishman-Lipsey wrote for Miami Girls Foundation in 2017.
