Philanthropy
Young Women LEAD arose from a desire of aspiring women professionals to give back. They sought to develop leadership skills and confidence in high school girls. Just as these women gave of their time and talents, we encourage today’s young women to follow in their footsteps and pay it forward.
Through our leadership development offerings on our new portal, we provide resources on how high school girls can give back to their communities.
To get started, we encourage them to get started by forming Young Women LEAD Clubs utilizing our evidence-based curriculum. Girls can create community impact projects to utilize their time, talents, and treasure to make a leadership impact today. In addition, our conferences include opportunities for students to explore and develop their leadership skills while giving back to their communities.
YWL Clubs
YWL Clubs can be implemented in any school serving high school girls in grades 9-12. Students and educators are encouraged to initiate YWL Clubs and organizations in their schools to carry forward and extend the messaging from the YWL Live! events. These clubs can be part of the extracurricular offerings, advisory groups, or club options in the students’ individual schools.
YWL Clubs build on YWL’s tradition of excellence. The YWL Club curriculum offers extended year-long learning experiences focused on workforce skills, leadership development, and STEM career mentorship opportunities. This unique approach allows the opportunity for access and inclusion for diverse students to learn from and support one another along their career continuum.
