Dear Girls Inc. Family,

As the summer sun sets and we prepare for the winter months ahead, I am filled with gratitude for the remarkable impact we’ve achieved together over the past year. Your unwavering support has empowered Girls Inc. to create transformative opportunities for thousands of girls, both present and past, shaping their futures in profound ways.

Celebrating Our Strong, Smart, & Bold Girls: Present, Past, and Future

Present: Right now, our programs are bustling with bright young minds eager to make a difference. Girls like Journey Turner, who is currently thriving in our Making Music Matters Program, has shown extraordinary progress in her violin playing and confidence when performing. With your support, Journey and many others are building the foundation for their current and future success.

Past: Reflecting on our alumna, we are inspired by the stories of our strong, smart, and bold women who have walked this path before. Take Dr. Kia Chambers, for instance. After participating in our Girls Inc. programs, she went on to become a successful entrepreneur and is now mentoring young girls in our community, showing them what’s possible with hard work and dedication. Her journey is a testament to the lasting impact of Girls Inc. and your generosity.

Future: Looking ahead, we are excited about the possibilities for the next generation of Girls Inc. alumnae. Our goal is to continue expanding our reach and deepen our impact, ensuring that every girl, whether new to our programs or a future alumna, has the support and resources she needs to thrive. To this end, we aim to raise $500,000 this year to fund new programs, enhance existing ones, and expand our outreach efforts.

  • Smart Academic Enrichment: A set of research-based curriculums that provide additional academic support and enrichment through homework help, literacy, and stream.
  • Bold Independent Life Skills: A set of research-based curriculums that provide independent life skills through leadership training, advocacy, and self-efficacy to be the next strong, smart, and bold leader.
