How We work
Young leaders start here
Girl Up provides youth globally with the training, tools, and community to build their leadership and accelerate social change that stands to benefit us all.
I never thought that I would get an opportunity like this: to be surrounded by so many amazing girls who are just as passionate about social justice issues as I am.
