"Be brave. Be empowered. Be yourself." From a role in government to partnering with Google, former U.S. Treasurer Rosie Rios has worked to inspire and empower young women. After leading the effort to ensure a woman would appear on U.S. currency for the first time, Rios is now focused on her Teachers Righting History initiative which gives teachers and students access to the database so that they can recognize the contributions that women have made to American history. Rios also recently partnered with Google to create 40 new Expeditions to give children the ability to experience different professions in virtual reality as "our future leaders need inspiration in order to have aspiration." #WomensHistoryMonth
