An entrepreneurial business, 2616 generates revenue to help fund the YWCAs much needed community services. Located at 2616 Gallatin Pike, in the heart of East Nashville, the YWCA of Nashvilles 2616 boutique features womens clothing, shoes and accessories.

Named for the woman who, in 1866, became the first American female to earn a degree in dentistry, The Lucy Hobbs Project inspires women in the profession to drive change and deliver success through networking, innovation and giving back. Dr. Hobbs, denied access to education because of her gender, learned dentistry with the assist of a mentor, through apprenticeship, and eventually graduated from the Ohio College of Dental Surgery. Free to join, the project aims to bring women together from all facets of the dental industry.
