Meet Ariel, a junior at Bellevue High and a dedicated member of Be Bold Girls since 8th grade. Ariel recently shared her journey with our program, and her story speaks volumes about the transformative impact of Be Bold Girls - a leadership program at Be Bold For Change. “I’ve been able to develop my confidence and presentation skills through opportunities just like this. I’ve connected with so many talented adults and learned from experienced mentors, which has been incredibly rewarding. This program has given me the chance to work with like-minded peers, face societal challenges, and truly drive change.” Ariel joined Be Bold Girls to confront self-confidence challenges, tackle societal standards, and create a supportive community with peers who share similar experiences. Through our program, she’s not only developed crucial leadership and communication skills but also had the chance to collaborate on meaningful projects, including her Changemaker Challenge campaign to boost confidence among young girls. Ariel’s journey is just one example of the empowering environment Be Bold Girls creates. We’re honored to be part of her growth and are inspired by her commitment to making a positive impact. Here’s to Ariel and all the incredible young women building brighter futures with Be Bold Girls! 💫 #BeBoldGirls #Changemaker #GirlsEmpowerment #YouthLeadership
