Girl Empowerment Programs

Play Like a Girl offers free mentorship opportunities, hands-on STEM education and career exposure to girls ages 10-13 through partnerships with companies working to advance diversity, equity and inclusion across all industries and sectors.

Our programs, which primarily live in a hybrid space, elevate women role models from all backgrounds, professions and nationalities so that girls everywhere can see themselves in careers where women are historically underrepresented.
