Voice. Impact. Purpose. Camp VIP prepares girls for the future!

Camp Girl VIP is a unique camp experience that will help girls find their voice, recognize the impact they can make on their community and help them explore their power and purpose. At camp girls will learn and practice leadership through a two-day summer camp experience. They will meet, witness in action, and engage in conversation with women in our community in leadership roles and who have have chosen non-traditional career paths.

How it works:

Each morning, we will meet together to learn about leadership through a variety of Tedtalks, guest speakers and activities. In the afternoon, we will be going to different organizations and companies to meet female leaders and learn more about their work, paths and career.

New Camp Girl VIP dates coming in early 2024!
