00:00We're here today because of the organizations and their committed leaders that promote and
00:06protect the power of women.
00:09Our newest Power of Women partner, Purina's innovative Purple Leash program, is a perfect
00:15example.
00:16Thanks to Purple Leash, domestic violence shelters have become pet-friendly, allowing
00:21domestic abuse survivors to have their cherished pets by their side, providing emotional support
00:27critical to surviving trauma.
00:36And tonight, Purina honors Sarah Hyland with our first-ever Variety Courage Award for her
00:44outspoken advocacy for survivors of domestic abuse.
00:54Thank you, Purina.
00:57I recently participated in another close-up and personal example of powerful leadership
01:03for women.
01:04Our founding partner, A&E Networks, works every day in a multitude of ways to put women
01:10first.
01:12At the White House last week, Ramin, my daughter Ava, and I experienced the remarkable new
01:18White House tour created by A&E's The History Channel.
01:23Go to the White House!
01:30They executed Dr. Jill Biden's vision to bring 21st century technology to a new generation
01:36of students.
01:37A&E's President and Chairman, Paul Buccieri, turned her inspiration into an impressive
01:43reality that will impact every visitor to our nation's first home.
01:50Women's rights, education, mentorship, corporate social responsibility, all are core missions
02:03for Paul and for the team at A&E Networks.
02:07So let's give a big thank you and a very big Power of Women round of applause to our friends
02:12at A&E, Lifetime, and Paul Buccieri.
