GIRLS UNITE- GU

WHO WE ARE

Girls Unite (GU) is a national organization that empowers girls and helps
tackle issues that they face in their day to day lives by providing
motivational talks and one on one interaction.

OUR GOALS

GU empowers girls for personal and social transformation.
Our mission is to help young teenage girls build self-esteem, develop
leadership skills and recognize their full potential. The talks inspires
girls to have the voice, ability and problem solving capacity to speak up,
be decision makers and create visionary change.

OUR VISION

GU helps in increasing the confidence in the voice of the girls, developing
life-skills, and improving the ability to identify paths that can
contribute to positive change and break cycles for a lifetime.

We envision a world where girls with strong voices become active leaders
and passionately engaged citizens, impacting not only their own
neighborhoods but also their nations as girls become informed and
participating citizens in their civic, political and cultural communities.
