Hey there, I'm Marie Forlejo and for the last 20 years I've helped millions of people

transform their businesses and lives.

If you're ready to make the difference you were born to make,

get ready because this is the Marie Forelio Podcast.

One of the things that we're really passionate about in our company

is paying it forward and doing whatever we can to use our resources

and this platform to help create opportunities for others.

And this year we got the chance to work with a fantastic organization that's run by an incredible woman that I really

want you to meet.

Tammy Tibbets is the founder and president of She's the First, a nonprofit that sponsors

girls education in the developing world so that these girls can be the first

in their families to graduate from high school. The organization also has an extensive network of

campus chapters all over the United States raising funds and awareness.

Tammy, a fellow Jersey girl, who herself was the first in her family to graduate from college,

was recognized as a Diane von Furstenberg People's Voice Award winner on the 30 under 30

list of Time and Forbes and as a member of Fast Company's most creative people in business

1,000. However, what she's most creative people in business 1,000.

However, what she's most proud of is that in five short years,

she's the first has funded more than 1,000 years of education

for 400 scholars and has 117 amazing campus chapters.

Tammy, thank you so much for being here.

Oh, it's such a joy, thank you.
