MANCHESTER – Girls at Work, Inc. is reinventing its 6th annual Diva Night event.

This year’s online program, underwritten by presenting sponsor, People’s United Bank, premiers at 7 p.m. Sept. 26, and features music from Boston’s Adam Ezra Group and nationally acclaimed stand-up comedienne Kelly MacFarland. The event also includes an online auction, opening at 4 p.m. on Sept. 17.

Originally scheduled for earlier this year, this year’s reinvented annual Diva program continues to be Girls at Work’s primary fundraising event to support the mission to provide girls with the tools to overcome adversity, build confidence and develop leadership skills to face current and future life challenges. The program empowers girls through building, woodworking and STEAM(Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, Math)programs.

“Through the generosity of our partnership with People’s United Bank in 2020, we’re thrilled to be able to hold our largest fundraising event of the year despite the challenges of the pandemic. We’re grateful to work with a partner who has been extremely supportive in the need to shift gears with this year’s event, turning it into a virtual program.” said Girls at Work Executive Director Beth Dever.
