On March 29, we celebrate the life and legacy of Lou Henry Hoover on what would have been her 152nd birthday.

A trailblazer in her own right, Lou Henry Hoover was a linguist, scientist, humanitarian, and advocate for women’s leadership. As First Lady of the United States, she brought a global perspective shaped by her travels and work alongside Herbert Hoover, and she used her platform to champion education, volunteerism, and opportunities for women and girls.

Her influence extended far beyond the White House. From her work with the Girl Scouts to her passion for cultural understanding and public service, Lou Henry Hoover exemplified a life of curiosity, intellect, and purpose.

Today, we honor her enduring impact and the values she lived by—service, leadership, and a commitment to making a difference.

Join us in celebrating her remarkable legacy.
