BECOME A MENTOR OR VOLUNTEER

Thank you for your interest in Girls with Gifts!

Volunteers are an integral part of the success of Girls with Gifts.  Whether it be mentorship, volunteering for a specific event or program, we seek individuals that are passionate about the development and personal growth of our Girls and our organization. The donation of your time and resources allow us to continue the important work of training our young girls to shine as women.

Volunteers

We utilize volunteers for various programs throughout the year, including fundraising events, such as our annual bowling event, holiday toy drives and our Reach Back, Pull Forward Summer Program, now serving: Los Angeles, Flint and Houston. We are also seeking volunteers with expertise in grant-writing, sponsorship and corporate relations as well as PR and marketing. 

Mentors

Our mentors are vital to our flagship Reach Back, Pull Forward Summer Program.  Mentors are expected to interact with and engage our mentees during the the program and encourage to cultivate relationships with the mentees long after the summer program is over.  We want individuals that are dedicated to helping these young girls shine!

  • Must be 18 years of age or older

Volunteering and mentorship can open doors to new friendships and give you the rewarding opportunity to help others!
