From the Boys and Girls Club about a Women's Giving Circle grant for the SMART Girls program...giving girls confidence and connections.

"The mentoring component of Smart Girls gives adolescent girls the opportunity to reach their full potential through a structured and trusting relationship with a female mentor who helps them develop their confidence, connection, character, caring and contribution. By developing a healthy relationship with staff at the Club the confidence of our young females will build healthy lifestyles for their future. By having caring, trusting female adults facilitate important life learning discussions, we are preparing these young females to successfully transition to the adult world." ?
