Girls Rising

Girls Rising We're a nonprofit based in San Diego that empowers young women through a mentorship sisterhood.

Our programs are built on connection, education, personal development, and career growth. We began expanding to Riverside County in 2022 and are currently accepting Mentor and Mentee applications for cities located within Riverside County! The mission of Girls Rising is to empower girls from eight years of age to early adulthood through a sisterhood of mentorship and career readiness support. Our

Girls Rising Mentorship Program is built through example and community. We believe the value of mentorship is realized through positive modeling and support for girls aged 8-17 from San Diego and Riverside County areas with the greatest need. Our program for young women between 18-24, Women Emerging, focuses on career readiness and personal development.

Every match creates opportunities for connection, growth, and lasting memories.

At Girls Rising, every mentorship begins with a goal. From building confidence and improving grades to planning for careers and independent living, our girls work alongside mentors who help turn dreams into action steps.

Girls with mentors are more likely to set goals, believe in their future, and pursue opportunities they once thought were out of reach.

Help us empower the next generation of strong, confident young women. 💛

Join the movement today as a mentee or mentor by applying on our website, girlsrisingsd.org, or link in bio.
