Calling All Change-Makers!
The 2019-20 Girls Build Challenge is now open.
Apply HERE today!
For the fifth year in a row, Girls Build is challenging young women from public middle and high schools across the country to be the leaders we need for our communities.
This is your opportunity to identify the specific issues most important to your community, and define what it takes to make change happen. We need you to work together to be the problem-solvers, the answer-seekers, and the game-changers for today and the future.
Start by gathering your team of six female students. Together, identify an issue in one of the categories below to address in your year-long project:
1) Civic Engagement
2) Health & Wellness
3) Education: STEM & College Access
Bring your ideas to us, and we'll select 65 of the most promising projects. Each selected Girls Build Team will receive $1000 to support their efforts and adult coordinators receive a stipend as well.
Girls, start building today! Applications are due by Sunday, September 29th, 2019.
And check out @lapromisefund + @girls_build on Instagram for the latest updates on the Girls Build Challenge! Use #girlsbuild for your chance to be featured.
Sincerely,
The Girls Build Team
