Let’s toast to transformation, resilience, and the warriors rising among us.
The Roaring Twenties were all about breaking barriers — and so is our mission. We believe every young person deserves more than just a fighting chance; they deserve a community that lifts them up. For those who’ve faced tough beginnings, Discover Your Inner Warrior is a lifeline — offering healing, skill-building, and hope. With your help, we can keep creating spaces where resilience grows and dreams take root.
Food & beverages included in ticket!

Since 2009 Athena’s Warehouse has worked to provide positive experiences to young women. Our very first program was the Prom Dress Project, we collect gently used formal dresses from women in the community, have the dresses cleaned and then give the dresses away to students. Through this program we were able to ascertain that there was a deeper need in the community, that many of the young women we are serving have low self esteem, and these students have a lot of responsibilities to help their families financially. Thus the, formerly “Be Awesome Be Aware”, now “Discover Your Inner Warrior” program was born. We needed a way to establish a sense of belonging, to show students that they were connected to their community and that their voices were important.
We serve youth ages 14-24 who identify as girls, young women, non-binary or gender-nonconforming that are growing out of poverty. Our current participants typically identify as Latina (over 90%), and Spanish is the primary language spoken in their home. About 5% of our students identify as Black and another 5% as Asian. Over 90% of the youth we serve were born in the US but have parents who were born in a foreign country. The average household size is 6 people and the average income level for a given household is $32,000.
