A BroaderWay Foundation was created in 2010 by Idina Menzel and Taye Diggs. It is dedicated to offering girls from underserved communities an outlet for self-expression and creativity through arts-centered programs. The emphasis is on building self-esteem, developing leadership qualities and striving for personal and social achievement. Camp BroaderWay, A BroaderWay Foundation's inaugural endeavor, will celebrate its third season in August 2013."
