Impact
Our Philosophy: We believe in the value of community, training and support in order to close the gender leadership gap. Our goals are to give girls between the formative ages of 8-16 access to resources, educational experiences, and relationships that would pave the way for the next generation of leaders. Our hope is that our leadership training and educational enrichment will both prepare them for success in the 21st century workforce and give them the courage, confidence, and commitment to assume leadership positions.Since 2020, GirlsWhoSTEAM has been at the forefront of girl-led leadership programs. GirlsWhoSTEAM has received over $30,000 in grants to fund our programs and activities, and we have established over 30 partnerships and 10 sponsors for our programs. We have held over 125 events, have had over 3000 participants (both in in-person and virtual programs), and are led by over 100 volunteers. We currently have had over 23 active chapters in different states across the US. Our online blogs, social media outreach, and media engagement has reached over 100,000 interactions. Our skincare project is projected to distribute over $10,000 worth in products to 500 women in shelters. By 2025, our goal is to impact/enrich the life of at least 5,000 women and girls through investments, free programs, and internship/volunteer opportunities.
