Want to join 1500 girls and women as they gain the inspiration, skills, and resources it takes to change the world? Each year, the national organization Girls for a Change hosts the Girl Summit—the most powerful and respected social-change conference of its kind. The Girl Summit is only made possible by hundreds of volunteers who donate their time. Volunteer for part of the day or the entire day. Come on your own or with a group of friends or colleagues. Help inspire the next generation of leaders!
