The goal of this program is to nurture and empower girls, using a holistic approach, to become independent leading young women in the society and in turn impact the community through the above initiatives.
This program was created with our goal in mind. A program that is student-oriented and focused. This will give the students a dynamic opportunity to be groomed into independent, responsible members of the community through character education, career guidance, skill development/ acquisition, academic success, life coaching and leadership development.
As a result, the girls will develop:
- Positive self-image, confidence, resulting in improved self-esteem
- Increase effective communication and social skills
- Higher order thinking that leads to excellence and fosters a sense of empowerment
- Broad range of academic, social and emotional skills to equip them for success
- Mentorship skills
We value each and every girl as a valuable, respectable part of the community that needs to be nurtured and mentored.
“Strive not to be a success but rather to be a value”- Albert Einstein.
Our volunteering team holds weekly meetings from September to June (we are off in the summers to align with youth summer holidays) every Friday via zoom where the mentors come together and lead sessions discussing various important topics and creating a safe space for discussion. A broad range of topics has been covered in the sessions including health and nutrition, self-care, social-media use, goal-management, mental health and wellness, social issues like the BLM movement, and many more!
Some of the screenshots from session presentations and a video clip are shown below.
