It’s December already! Can you believe it?! We took some time to look back at the year and felt a great amount of gratitude.
​That’s why we'd like to say THANK YOU for joining our mission to equip the next generation of #changemakers!

30 GGU girls. 1 inspiring power mentor. $500 raised for Students Rebuild.

Hosted by Berlin Metropolitan School, Kimberly Marteau Emerson joined us as power mentor for our Unite - Inspire - Act event. The group made 250 pinwheels for the Students Rebuild Healing Classroom Challenge which resulted in $500 for Syrian refugee children.
