2025 Back-to-School

2025 Back-to-School

Together, we’re raising $95,000 to support girls’ leadership, social-emotional growth, and access to afterschool programs across Alameda.

“It’s great to see her working with other girls in coding. People tend to talk about the lone engineers, but it’s actually collaborative and a great learning experience.”
– Gautham (Myra’s father)

Why It Matters

“It’s not just free play. Every day, she comes home with something new like art, newsletter ideas. She’s made real connections and built confidence.”
– Sheela (Myra’s mother)

At Girls Inc. of the Island City, youth like Myra are building real-life skills that shape their futures. From leadership training to emotional literacy, your support helps young people grow up strong, smart, and bold.
