Girl with Grit is a grassroot 501c3 nonprofit that empowers girls through hands-on learning opportunities to develop life skills, career paths, and passions.
Camp Girl With Grit is an intensive but fun life skills camp for female youth ages 8-22. Over the course of classes, youth learn about the skills it takes to survive. We engage students with fun, hands-on learning, and projects.
The camps quickly saturate basic life skills that are needed for independent living. Camps have been called potentially life-saving and life-changing by law enforcement and behavioral scientists.
