SUMMARY:Business Women's Network Luncheon
DESCRIPTION:Speaker Qaadirah Rahim\, CEO of Future Foundation\n\n\n\nThe CEO of the Future Foundation\, a non-profit\, which empowers Atlanta's youth\, Qaadirah Abdur-Rahim is a status-quo disruptor. The Atlanta native\, one of 2017's Georgia Trend's 40 under 40\, attended the University of California\, Berkeley and realized local schools had not prepared her for college. She earned her degree in social work\, then a master's from the University of California San Francisco\, before returning to Atlanta to help kids like her.
