Our Volunteer Vision
Girls For A Change volunteers are at the heart of changing the trajectory of black girls’ life experiences and creating a better narrative to tackle individual and societal change by providing meaningful programs, safe spaces, and promoting awareness of GFAC resources.
Our volunteers bring optimism and enthusiasm, create positive energy, and share diverse perspectives that lead to enhanced outcomes for Black girls and other girls of color.
