"The continuing enthusiastic response of companies wanting to join our mission to give tween girls a platform to Stand Up, Speak Out and Be Heard has been incredible," states Denise Restauri, CEO and founder of both AK Tweens and AllyKatzz.com. "Our sponsors are embracing the fact that tweens have voices that need to be supported. They understand that our Tween Summits give girls incredible opportunities that they can't get anywhere else."
Emily-Anne, last year a tween attendee and this year an A.L.L.Y. Awardee, agrees, "Through the Tween Summit, I've met women who have changed my life in ways I never could have even dreamed of. The Summit played a vital role in opening my eyes to a whole new world of self-esteem and empowerment. For this reason, I will always have a special place in my heart for the AllyKatzz Tween Summit."

ABOUT THE SUMMIT
The 2nd Annual AllyKatzz Tween Summit will welcome 250 tween girls, ages 8-14, from across the country to NYC. Beginning at 8:00am at The Altman Building in Chelsea, the day will encompass a keynote address that emphasizes the importance of tweens speaking up and taking action, a hands-on "meet & greet" with "A.L.L.Y. Awardees"- inspiring tween/teen girls and boys who started their own non-profits, an Exhibit Hall featuring the event sponsors that make the Summit possible- all offering the girls a rare opportunity to tell companies what they want, a chance to "Speak Up & Share" with the "Listening Panel"- a group of accomplished women from media, entertainment, fashion, sports, and politics who want to know what tweens want, and a chance to spread goodwill through DenimMessaging(TM) - (decorating the interior pockets and waistbands of jeans with words of hope and encouragement that will then be donated to homeless tweens and teens). At 7:30pm, at NYU Skirball Center for the Performing Arts, they'll be treated to a Red Carpet event and the "DM'ing(TM) for Change!" concert featuring teen artists and bands!
To complement the tweens' experience- a day long Parent Track devoted to exploring topics relevant to their daughters is offered- including what girls are thinking, doing, saying (or not saying), and dreaming...
This groundbreaking day will be moderated by tween expert, AK Tweens and AllyKatzz.com founder Denise Restauri along with author, Seventeen Magazine columnist and self-esteem expert Jess Weiner.
