Recently, our multitalented Girls Thrive Operations Manager, Katie Murnion, submitted an article to The Changing Times about How Fear Can Bring Joy! This is a constant theme in Girls Thrive - seeing the challenge, contemplating it, confronting it, and then conquering it. This builds confidence along the way and a belief that we can do anything we set our minds to. Way to go, Coach Katie!

Girls Thrive
Strength, Confidence, and Community, One Girl at a Time.
We envision a world where girls not only grow up to be strong, confident, and community-oriented women, but also face no barriers to participation in sports.

β¨Thank you The Good Find Refillery & Thrift for partnering with Girls Thrive! β¨
We know that access to athletic clothing can be a huge barrier to exercise. We strive to make sure our girls have access to clothing they feel comfortable and safe moving in. The Good Find Refillery & Thrift reached out to GT and offered to collect and donate athletic clothing to help keep our girls comfortable and active. Thank you The Good Find, we so appreciate you!

Every year, we ask our participants, "What was your favorite thing about Girls Thrive?". Sometimes it's an activity, such as rock climbing or running; sometimes it's a lesson, such as confident communication lessons or learning what it takes to be an FBI agent. Oftentimes, the answer is: EVERYTHING! π

At the end of the session, we measure a lot more than just numbers. We measure the confidence grown, the friendships gained, and the resilience built. Every ride, run, and climb brings us closer to our mission of building strength, confidence, and community for our girls.

Strength, confidence, and community, for every girl - this is our mission at Girls Thrive. But how do we know if we've been successful?
After each session, we analyze both qualitative and quantitative data from participants to see if we're meeting our goals.
After this year's Spring Session, we saw:
π« 20% increase in belonging
πΌοΈ 20% increase in self-expression
π΅πΌββοΈ 13% increase in willingness to embrace challenges
π§πΌββοΈ 12% increase in confidence trying new physical activities
We use this information to keep building our programs to be the best they can be for our participants, and to build strength, confidence, and community. Girls Thrive!
