About Us
We are a 501(c)3 non profit organization dedicated to closing the leadership gender gap by investing in community, coaching, and connections for girls. Our various programs in STEM, public speaking, financial literacy, and career readiness are all experiences that enable girls to find their power and leadership abilities. These programs pave the way for the next generation of female leaders by supporting girls who seek careers in areas where women are underrepresented such as business, law, and STEM fields.

"As Governor, I commend your unwavering commitment to inspiring young women to accomplish their goals and for being an outstanding example for young women in your community and arround the world. Your impressive leadership abilities and far reaching contributions to create "Girls Who STEAM," using creative workshops and lifelong mentorship opportunities that empowers young women and closes the gender gap in leadership will be forever valued in our great state"

As a parent of gifted children, it is often hard to find programs that interest them. The GWS workshop in Springfield was very interesting and they left learning something new. We can't wait for the next one!
