““It really does allow girls to follow both their philanthropic and business passions and create meaningful ventures that far exceed the expected capabilities of someone their age.””
““The resources, mentors and course from Girls with Impact has collectively shaped my academic journey by teaching me the foundation of how to innovate and think in new ways. The program opened my eyes to entrepreneurship as not just acting on creating a solution, product or idea, but also as a framework and mindset that I approach in life.””
““It gave me all these things I can use when I go to college.””
““This program has given me the opportunity to look at my future not simply through the traditional lens of higher education and then a 9-5 job, but as a continuous journey doing something that I love, and that I can begin now.””

““Girls with Impact started my path to developing my own non-profit, Allsorts Clothing, where I help, teach, and employ local refugee women in environmentally sustainable garment production. This idea was possible because of the skills I learned from Girls With Impact.””
““I wanted to say THANK YOU! Andrea, my niece, has been truly enjoying this program. In the middle of so much stress and uncertainty (not only the pandemic but living in a Venezuela in crisis) this program has been so incredibly motivational and helpful. She is learning new concepts, she is improving her English and she is gaining lots of confidence. I know the program is not over but wow, thank you!””
““I wish I could bottle up my nieces excitement and send to you and the organizers- from their self-confidence to the pre-work effort to the entrepreneurial enthusiasm has been off the charts and so rewarding to see during Facetime chats this past week. They are making me out like a superhero, when it is J&J and HOLA who are the true superheroes!!” ”
““I want to tell you that from my POV, the curriculum these girls have had access to is really impressive. I know the girls were not always super engaged during the sessions and Tatam had the courage to speak up during only one class... but it really made her think about how to drive revenue on a concept (“Dyslexia 101”) that she didn’t realize may need that contemplation. She had to consider her target audience, how to inform people of her idea and what her goals would be, etc. At times she was frustrated but she always channeled the challenge into taking notes and pushing forward. “”
