This is my second year on the Girls Advisory Board, and my first year on the Adult Board. Being on The Girls Advisory Board has truly changed my high school career. I met different girls* around Maine, and we all shared the same goal to young girls help girls* find their voice. What stands out to me about their mission is how they take girls seriously. Since getting involved, my favorite part of the program has been putting on Girls Rock! Conferences. I love seeing all of the excitement and inspiration when we wrap up the workshops and conferences for girls* around Maine. I hope you will join us in this important work. Your donations will ensure we can provide free and low-cost programming to over 1,200 girls around the state! Come cause a ruckus with us.

Hardy Girls' biggest fundraiser is the annual Girls* Rock! Awards. This is one awesome night of listening to girls talk about leaping over stereotypes, ignoring the haters and smashing the patriarchy. We honor six girls* who are challenging society and making changes around our state. Hardy Girls Healthy Women takes girls seriously and puts the power in their hands to challenge a society that ignores their brilliance.
