Our Programs

Financial Wellness

Covering basics for participants to stabilize their day-to-day financial situation in order to create a solid foundation on which they can build a financial future, achieve financial security and independence and grow wealth.

Entrepreneurship

Our Entrepreneurship events introduce girls to the world of entrepreneurship through a hands-on approach with a Pitch competition. Participants are able to collaborate, research, and present an idea to a panel of judges, where they would receive feedback and support.



STEM Workshops

based arround a DIY curriculum, our STEM workshops normally incorporate creativity and the arts to teach the participants (often aged 10-12) science concepts through a hands-on approach. These events serve as summer camps and after school programming, and in addition to serving as a supplement for the normal STEM curriculum that children normally are exposed to, they also serve as an opportunity to close the gender gap in STEM.
