What We Do

Programs Built to Develop the Whole Girl

Girls Glowing Up works through three core programs — leadership development, mentoring, and our online curriculum — so every girl can build confidence, life skills, leadership, and readiness for whatever comes next.

Our Three Core Programs

Three Programs. Equal Weight.

Each one stands on its own — and together they surround a girl with support.

Leadership Academy

Leadership development for girls ready to lead.

Our leadership-development program builds the skills girls need to lead themselves first — then their classrooms, families, and communities. Cohorts move through leadership training, life skills, service projects, and future-readiness work together.

For girls in elementary, middle, and high school

  • Leadership development & public speaking
  • Life skills for real life
  • Service & community impact projects
  • Future readiness — college, career, purpose

Mentoring

Consistent, caring adults in a girl's corner.

GGU mentoring pairs girls with trained, background-checked mentors who show up consistently. Mentoring is one program — we simply deliver it in whatever way fits the girl and her family best.

For girls K–12, matched by age and need

  • Trained, background-checked mentors
  • Consistent weekly connection
  • Goal setting & personal growth
  • Family communication and support

Curriculum

GGU's online learning system.

The GGU Curriculum is our online learning system — an interactive digital library of workbooks, lessons, and brain games built on the five-pillar framework. Girls can learn at their own pace at home, and schools and organizations can license it for the classroom.

Online — for families, schools, and organizations

  • Online GGU learning system
  • Built on the five-pillar framework
  • Age-specific tracks: elementary, middle, high school
  • Interactive lessons, activities & printables
