PROGRAMS

 

​Each program is designed to create "Magical" moments that will be impactful and memorable in the minds of each participant. Our aim is to inspire and expose young girls to ideals beyond their imagination and immediate circumstance. Therefore, we go beyond traditional seminars and classroom settings and attempt to increase the focus on the experience component of each program to ensure that every girl is made to feel special and as if they are a part of a "fairytale".

These girls are treated to a Cinderella experience, which includes them being picked up in a limo, treated to hair, nails and make-up, and pampered throughout the experience by a personal shopper.

MENTORING RETREATS

In the past, we've attended theater productions such as Black Girl Speaks, a Concert, a College Pep Rally at Downtown Disney, a College Football game, and gone Zip Lining. Also included in this weekend is mentoring and the facilitation of sessions that focus on an array of topics ranging from self-image, college readiness, and networking.
