Thanks to your support, we are thrilled to welcome both new and returning Career Girls Clubs at schools across the country as we kick off 2025. Each school brings its unique energy and dedication to empowering girls, and we are excited to support them on their journey of self - discovery and career exploration.
Career Girls Club has come a long way since its pilot in 2018 at a San Francisco school, where it introduced its dynamic format - short role model videos paired with discussion - based lessons and hands - on activities. Today, students engage in 20 weekly sessions designed to equip them with leadership, communication, and career - readiness skills. Seeing the program thrive in its birthplace and expand nationwide is a testament to its lasting impact.
Across the country, we’re witnessing the program’s influence firsthand. In the Midwest, girls are returning for their second year, eager to build on the foundation they started. On the East Coast, students are beginning their journey with the Year One curriculum, and we’re excited to see their growth as they gain confidence and new skills.
None of this would be possible without support from generous donors like yourself.
What Students Are Saying:
“I learned to not be afraid to go out there and really achieve my dreams - no matter the amount of time. You are your best investment.”
— 11th Grader
What Educators Are Saying:
“We were blown away by the excitement around Career Girls Club. I had anticipated capping the group at 25 students from 4th and 5th grade. We had such a huge response that I recruited more advisors, and now we have almost 60 girls in our club! Both students and parents are incredibly enthusiastic about this opportunity.”
— School Counselor
With your continued support, we are excited to expand Career Girls Club in the months ahead, reaching even more students and providing them with the tools to dream big and achieve their goals. Thank you for making this possible!
