Did you know that in the United States, women generally make about 80% of what men take home in wages? And that in Montana, the wage gap is even larger, with women making about 74 cents to a man’s dollar? Bridger Brewing will host a very special Equal Pay Day on Tuesday, April 10th – .74¢ of each pint sold will be donated to benefit the Women’s Foundation of Montana, the only statewide fund dedicated to advancing economic independence for Montana women, and creating a brighter future for girls. Funds will go toward teaching women to negotiate for better wages, providing STEAM (Science, Technology, Arts, Engineering and Mathematics) programming for girls and supporting women in entrepreneurship, leadership and non-traditional careers.
