“Girls Inc. taught me that girls can do anything boys can do, and more.”
—Emily, YES Prep South Side, Seventh Grade

 

Girls Inc. of Greater Houston encourages girls to value their whole selves, discover and develop their inherent strengths, and provides them the support to navigate challenges. We are committed to providing life-changing experiences to all girls.

Emily, a seventh grade student at YES Prep South Side, participated in our Project Bold: Living Safe and Strong program earlier this year. During the school year she gained a deeper sense of personal strength and safety; learning personal strength reflects both an inward and outward confidence, and comes from building a strong mind, body, and spirit. Through journaling, Emily amplified her voice and realized that she could “do anything boys can do, and more.”

As a partner of Girls Inc. of Greater Houston, you help girls, just like Emiliy, discover and develop their inherent strengths.
