How Can I help?

Our programs do more than inspire and empower the girls we serve – they also transform our partners, from corporations to families who give together.

 

“These girls deserve to feel successful. Opportunities like these allow them to try something new and build a sense of self.”

Keri Kirby, Edgewood Center for Children and Families

“I want to empower these girls to make their own decisions. I want them to know their success is not defined by others.

Liz Williams,
Panelist, Sephora Day of Empowerment

“This partnership is our chance to show love and support for these young women, who we know will do extraordinary things.”

Bianca Gates & Marisa Sharkey,
Founders of Birdies
