2021: Our Year in Review
Over 10 years ago, Project Glimmer set off on a mission to build personal confidence in adolescent girls. Today, we've grown into a nationwide movement to help inspire every girl to envision and realize an empowered future. Thanks to you, together we are changing thousands of lives!
In 2021, Project Glimmer reached 180,000 young women nationwide, many of whom are in foster care. We hosted accessible, virtual career events and coaching sessions for over 1,300 girls, including launching our first Empowerment Academy. Over 650,000 gifts and essential goods were distributed in deeply impoverished communities. Your support made all the difference over the last year – during a time of endless unknowns and heightened needs.
I hope you never forget there are girls thriving today because of YOUR generosity. I am so grateful for everything you have done – and continue to do – to help them grow and reach their full potential.
As a new year begins, I’m excited and hopeful for what 2022 will bring. We’ve made a commitment to empower 1 Million Girls by the end of the year and we can’t do it without you. Let’s do this!
With deep gratitude,
Chrissy Shea
