"I am looking forward to having Girls Inc. back in our lives, most importantly in the girls’ lives. Before the pandemic occurred, I felt secure, and I felt safe knowing my girls were at Girls Inc. while I was working. It is extremely helpful knowing that Monday through Friday, staff are working with each and every grade, doing different activities, which were always hands-on."

America C., Girls Inc. Parent

CORPORATE PARTNERS

Keep on trying! For me it’s easy because you keep on trying every day. Girls Inc. teaches me to speak out loud and never be shy.

Kimberly, age 8
