Stronger Organizations

“Every year, our students research how much money a girl loses in her lifetime as a result of being female. The numbers always astonish them, but I have never seen them as activated and inspired as they were this year. Making a video with Equal Rights Advocates, an Alliance for Girls member, about their research and making a presentation to thousands of businesswomen at the Equal Employment Opportunities Commission allowed our girls to not only learn about wage disparity, but realize their own efficacy as advocates for change. One of the students is now a commissioner on the Hayward Youth Commission. Alliance for Girls made this possible."
