"We have a goal to get 250,000 women to run for office by 2030. It’s elections like this that will continue to grow the momentum of what we’re currently seeing."

"What we’re seeing is that women are continuing to show up in ways they hadn’t prior to 2016. And the message from that is women aren't going anywhere."

"There is no one formula for a woman to run a race."

"We all know somebody—maybe not today, but five, 10 years from now—who should absolutely be serving in an elected role. We each play such a substantial part in setting an encouraging tone and helping her lay the groundwork that she should do it and you believe in her."

"In this particular year, where we have a historic number of women on the ballot, we all play a role in not just looking at the women who are on the ballot now, but also looking around the corner at how much work that we have to all do to play a role in closing that gap in representation for women in elected office."

"I work every day to ensure that girls in the next generation grow up in a world with a level playing field. I want them to know that seeing themselves reflected in leadership positions is not only possible, but inevitable."

"Now we have a generation who -- not all, but some -- are tearing down those walls and saying, 'This is what it looks like to run for office,' and I think that that overall authenticity and transparency only stands to benefit politics."

“Princeton women have proven that they are leaders, just the kind of people who should be leading on big stages,” Linda Frankenbach began. “We just need a gentle push to run.”

"'Look, if you care about a cause and you're not seeing anyone in an elected role bring about that change, do something yourself, because, otherwise, you’re missing an opportunity to give a damn.' The bag is such a powerful way for us to take this message even further."

“While there’s great interest in 2018 we are really looking down the road at supporting women at all levels of government, whether they’re planning to run this year or five years from now,” said Sofia Pereira.

"Each month we choose a charity to donate for, and She Should Run seemed most fitting. We need more women to run for positions of power and make the right decisions," Emma McIlroy, CEO of Wildfang, shares with Bustle.

"This is the year of women, and Bustle is celebrating feminine courage, creativity and energy with its first-ever Rule Breakers Festival at the Lefrak Center in Prospect Park...with $10,000 from ticket sales being donated to She Should Run, a nonpartisan organization helping women run for office."
