“We are very excited to launch the Mizuho DrivHER Summit in conjunction with Girls Inc.,” said Lesley Palmer, Managing Director, Head of Community Relations, at Mizuho Americas. “We hope this experience has a real and positive impact on these young women, helping them develop their confidence and skills as future leaders and change-makers.”

Last year, Mizuho named Girls Inc. as the charitable partner of the Mizuho Americas Open and awarded a three-year, $500,000 grant to support its mission of providing girls and young women, particularly those from low-income communities and of color, with the resources and leadership skills needed to overcome challenges and reach their full potential.

The Mizuho Americas Open brings together world-class talent from the LPGA and top-ranked junior girls on the American Junior Golf Association (AJGA) Tour for a week of education and mentorship unlike any other experience in professional golf. The inaugural tournament made history with champion Rose Zhang becoming the first non-Tour member to win in their professional LPGA debut since 1951. The 2024 Mizuho Americas Open returns to Liberty National May 13-19, 2024.
