ACM Dot Diva Initiative

From http://campus.acm.org/public/dotdiva/
[T]he Dot Diva initiative is to create an exciting and attractive
image of computing for college bound high school girls, ages
13-18. ...
We* are looking for young women in Computer Science as potential
subjects for brief profiles on our web site. Because we're seeking
women who can inspire high school girls, we prefer candidates in their
early 20s, who are just starting out in their careers. We're also
interested in college students or high school girls who have some
experience with computing, whether it was at a summer camp, through a
project at school, or as part of an organization.
Heard about this through the National Girls Collaborative Project
newsletter. See http://ngcproject.org if you are interested in
promoting collaboration in the vast array of programs that work to
create gender equity in the areas of science, technology, engineering,
and mathematics (STEM)
