Mission
Daring Girls partners locally to ensure that girls have the knowledge, tools, and mentorship to confidently design their own futures.Our vision is a world where every girl has the skills, confidence, and savvy to design her own future and dare to become exactly who she wants to be.
What We Do
. In partnership with GLAMI (Girls Livelihood and Mentorship Initiative), Daring Girls works to support girls at a key stage in their life where access to mentorship, education, and life skills can transform the trajectory of their futures.Through two core mentoring programs - which recently earned the 2022 UNESCO Prize for Girls' and Women's Education - we support girls who dare to do something different, who choose to prioritize their education and take control of their futures. Every week, these Scholars show up to learn together in a supportive environment from a successful, university educated woman mentor who exemplifies what they can become. As a result, girls become more resilient, more confident, and more prepared to set and reach their goals.
