What does being 'Deeply Connected' mean to you? "Being deeply connected creates a reality of safety and belonging." - Jacquelyn, Middle School Mentor That's what we are doing with our mentees. Creating a space of safety and belonging so they can have the right resources needed to develop into the best decision-makers they can be. People who are deeply connected to others and their families, their communities, and also to Jesus. Just like we want to be deeply connected to our mentees-- we want to be deeply connected to you!

🌍This year, our extended leadership team joined forces during our annual Leadership Summit, themed ‘Here for you. Here for Impact’. 🤝To confirm their commitment to have impact on the communities around us, we partnered with Unicef. Throughout the Summit, the team participated in a wide range of team and individual challenges with one mission: collecting impact coins to donate ‘blue gifts’ to Unicef. 💙Collectively, the leadership team raised 8,120 euros to donate Unicef blue gifts – like baby cots, play kits and feminine care products - to people in need across the world. That’s how we make everyday life easier, also for people in need. #LeadershipSummit #HereForYou #HereForImpact #Unicef #BetterforPeople #Everyone #Integrity #TeamChallenges #DonationDrive #GivingBack #MakingADifference

Will you take 4 minutes to invest in the power of girls? We have $25,000 in matching support just waiting for you. my personal goal is that 100 donors will choose @girlsleadership today. Donate to our girls because they will have to come of age in this mess that we’ve created. Donate to us because we don’t just work with the girls, we train the adults around the girls, and give adults the resources to cultivate leadership in their classroom, sports team, program, or camp. Girls need these environments more than any other moment in my lifetime. Donate to Girls Leadership because you want your boys to come of age in classrooms and programs that teach them to look critically at gender expectations too. Donate to Girls Leadership because girls and women get less than 2% of philanthropic giving and you believe in gender equity. Plus donating feels good.
