Girls Mentorship
"Girls Mentorship is a Core-program under our Approach The Girl"
At the heart of Empowered Girls is our mentorship program, delivered through Empowered Girls Clubs. These clubs run in partner, affiliate, outreach, and primary schools through a structured four-year spiral curriculum tailored to girls' developmental stages.
