About Us
We bring together a diverse group of girls who are committed to living a healthy, happy, and balanced lifestyle. Our monthly activities focus on mental and physical wellness and aim to promote self-esteem, self-respect, and self-reliance.
The commitment of 1 full year is important as it encourages dedication and perseverance. The culmination of the program is a banquet where each girl is recognized and celebrated.
