Girls For A Change (GFC)
Founded in San Jose, California, GFC has since become a national organization, expanding its programs to areas such as San Francisco, California; Phoenix, Arizona; and Richmond, Virginia. GFC aims to empower teenage girls to create social change, focusing its efforts on girls who live in low income communities. GFC, through its Change Your World Trainings, Girl Action Teams, Volunteer Coaches and Girl Action Network, provides the tools, partnerships, and support for these girls to discover their voices and gain the ability to tackle the issues they face in their communities.GFC was awarded $10,000 in support of its expansion to meet national and international demand for GFC programming.
