“The power of human empathy, leading to collective action, saves lives, and frees prisoners. Ordinary people, whose personal well-being and security are assured, join together in huge numbers to save people they do not know, and will never meet….Unlike any other creature on this planet, humans can learn and understand, without having experienced. They can think themselves into other people’s places….We do not need magic to change the world, we carry all the power we need inside ourselves already: we have the power to imagine better.”  - J.K. Rowling.

The Woodward Alumnae Leadership Council (ALC) was established to act as a continued voice for the alumnae within the Woodward School, fostering a lifelong connection to the community, providing resources to the community and enhancing alumnae presence and support through advancement efforts. The ALC believes in the importance of creating a sisterhood far beyond the walls of the Woodward School and providing a continued support system for all the women who attend.
