Maha Hammad

President and Founder

As a mother of three children, my family is at the heart of everything I do. Their presence in my life has not only inspired me, but also instilled in me a profound sense of responsibility to contribute to a better world. This led me to create a women’s non-profit organization, alongside my career as a mortgage loan officer.

For me, empowerment is more than just a word—it’s a guiding principle, a philosophy that shapes my actions. It represents the belief that when women unite, support each other, and enjoy the journey together, we become unstoppable agents of positive change. I firmly believe that women are pivotal in shaping the future, and by empowering one another, we unlock limitless possibilities for ourselves and for future generations.
