✨ We’re so excited to share that Polished Pebbles Girls Mentoring Program was featured in a post by Melinda French Gates! ✨

She met with our girls in Chicago and highlighted how programs like Polished Pebbles help them develop the confidence and skills to dream big and pursue bold futures. 💎

We’re beyond grateful for this recognition and for the opportunity to keep lifting up the voices and brilliance of our girls.
