Why I Lead


Why do you lead? It’s a question we posed to our Girls Leadership community, and their answers gave us the inspiration, courage, and determination we need in this moment. Girls’ leadership has never been more important, and it has never been under greater threat in our lifetimes, especially for the most marginalized girls. If you believe that girls share your same right to leadership, to building the skills that will make her effective, to being seen as a leader, and for being celebrated for being the most powerful version of herself, then invest in our mission today. 


Your donation of any amount is critical for creating lasting change. Study after study shows us that when girls lead, they often aren't seen as leaders. They are seen as too aggressive, or too quiet, or too empathetic, or lacking gravitas. That is why our approach at Girls Leadership is to work with the adults in girls’ lives, so that we can create environments where the leadership of all girls is seen, embraced and cultivated. But we can’t create those environments without you. 

“Our girls and gender-expansive youth are more ready than ever to step into leadership. All they need is for us—as educators, mentors, and advocates—to recognize and support all of the identities, backgrounds, and experiences that inform their strength and their power.”

—Qian Julie Wang 

Girls Leadership is committed to ensuring all girls know the power of their voice. That’s why we:

  • Help build classroom cultures of belonging by training educators, so our girls’ leadership can be seen, valued and empowered.
  • Co-design curriculum with girls, so their voices and perspective are centered in creating the solutions they need. 
  • Train facilitators to offer cutting-edge family programming where girls and the grown-ups in their lives can practice the power of voice together. 
  • Prepare sports coaches and PE teachers to build environments of belonging on their teams, so our girls can not only perform, but thrive.

 

Donate today to build the kind of communities where girls’ power is valued! 

 Every donation at any level makes a difference. Please consider making a gift today.
