16, Co-Chair Girls as Grantmakers

"There are a lot of different ideas, opinions and different background sets in the girls. Yet we are all coming together to work towards this one goal – to empower girls with the resources to fulfill their dreams."


Jettie

13, Co-Chair Girls as Grantmakers Program
as reported on MTV.com talking about the Girlcott

"We had no idea it would get this far, so we're all just really happy. I was like, 'Wow, people are actually taking us seriously. They don't just see us as a group of ‘little girls.' The fact that we were able to take {on} a huge corporation and have them listen to us; that's an awesome victory.”


Alexis

Girls as Grantmakers Program

“A lot of kids at school were really wowed by the Girlcott. Now it is their turn to amaze us with the great ideas they can come up with about projects they want to make happen. We can not wait to read their grant applications and start giving out the money to other girls.”
