Girls Gearing Up Mentoring Program 


Girls Gearing Up Leadership Academy (GGU) is committed to creating real societal change by educating and empowering young female leaders to appreciate the needs of their global and local communities. We are intentional about inspiring a generation who believe they can affect change, and be the change they want to see. We are proud to launch our GGU Mentoring Program, to help girls achieve their goals and gain leadership skills by pairing them with inspiring successful women who coach, connect, encourage, and open doors for the girls.

The GGU Mentoring Program offers young women regular one-on-one mentoring over 12 months, from women who are leaders in their community or business area. The program focuses specifically on leadership skills like building confidence, public speaking, self awareness, leadership and entrepreneurship (with a focus on technology).

Become a mentor

Mentors in the GGU program represent a wide variety of nationalities, personal stories and career backgrounds - and are inspiring professional women committed to providing ongoing support to our participating girls. 

In monthly 1-on-1s with their mentors, girls will plan, share progress and celebrate wins as they work towards their goals. Girls and mentors will also build a supportive community with other participants outside their own pair, through special group workshops and events.
