4th-12th Grade-Boss Up Empowerment Conference & Virtual Immersion Summer Camp

  

Two programs to share with community members with daughters, granddaughters, and nieces between the 4th grade and rising college freshman. These virtual programs, which will be held in July of 2020, are offered at no cost. We know that because of COVID-19, many parents are looking for educational and fun ways to engage their children this summer with the lack of in-person activities. 

The first is our Boss Up Empowerment Conference. During this interactive, four-day virtual conference, we will teach high school students the importance of using their voice and platforms to effect positive change. We will cover topics like activism, leadership, college readiness, and entrepreneurship. From this conference, we want girls to take away the knowledge of how to propel their communities forward and develop lasting success for themselves. 
The second program is for our elementary and middle school girls. Here at ELG, we are on a mission to create girl bosses across the country. We currently have girls in 30 states, and this year we have the goal of touching girls in all 48 contiguous states. We do this through our staple 4-part scholarship program that begins with our Virtual Immersion Summer Camp. During camp, we will cover topics like activism, leadership, college readiness, and entrepreneurship. From this conference, we want girls to take away the knowledge of how to propel their communities forward and develop lasting success for themselves. Girls will learn how entrepreneurship can transform communities of poverty into communities of prosperity. In 2018, female founders raised just 2.3% of the total venture capital funding invested in startups, and black women raised only .0006% of that. We know that we can transform the culture of business today by planting the seed of entrepreneurship in girls early.
