Grants

Our grant program gives Minnesota girls the strength to achieve their full potential while building confidence and self-esteem along the way. We support these girls in chasing their dreams and creating their own path.

Mentorship

As part of our grant programs, a girl identifies a trusted adult (teacher, coach, family friend, etc.) to be her grant mentor. This person embodies a support system who encourages and inspires personal growth.

Opportunity

We want to create a community where girls embrace their confidence and show the world what they are made of. In addition to the grant, a girl will have access to resources in which she can learn more about herself.
