Call for Volunteers!!
Do you want to inspire the next generation of female leaders?

Girlstart is looking for female students from WICS to provide mentoring and computer programming assistance for high school girls during their after-school Project IT Girl meetings! You will work one-on-one with the girls and commit to at least five hours of service over the semester, including one orientation session.

Connecting the Project IT Girls with female mentors is an essential element of the Project IT Girl philosophy.

Won't you join the Project IT Girl volunteer team?

If you're interested in volunteering, or would like more information, please contact Zakiyyah Kareem at Zakiyyah@girlstart.org.
