Dream It, Be It: Career Support for Girls!

February 13, 2017 By jboetger

Dream It, Be It: Career Support for Girls is a program designed to help girls grow up to be strong, successful women.  The program provides girls with access to professional role models, career education and the resources to achieve their dreams.  SI Moses Lake hosts an annual Fall Conference and a Spring Fashion Show and Luncheon for High School girls in Grant County.  Girls are able to interact with professional women from the community while learning about career opportunities, setting and achieving goals, and overcoming obstacles to success and how to move forward after setbacks or failures.  Both the Conference and the Spring Fashion Show provide girls with tools to grow and encourage them to DREAM.  We believe – if You can Dream It, You can BE IT!

Violet Richardson Award

November 21, 2016 By jboetger

According to the report from the Girl Scout Research Institute, Exploring Girls’ Leadership, girls believe that being a leader means making a difference in the world. It means

focusing on helping others and making a commitment to fight against social injustices. The Violet Richardson Award program recognizes young women ages 14-17 for demonstrating

leadership by identifying an issue that is important to them in their communities and the world and addressing it through their volunteer efforts. In addition to recognizing young

women for their efforts to make the world a better place, the program provides recipients with leadership opportunities to encourage and support them to continue their work as

community leaders.

Leadership for these girls is defined as having identified a social, political and/or economic need, locally or globally, and taking action to address the need and bring about positive

change. This award is based solely on the applicant’s volunteer work and leadership qualities. This award is an opportunity to honor a girl who might not otherwise receive

recognition. She may not be the best student, thebest athlete, or the most popular girl in school, but she is committed to making the world a better place. The amount is $600 cash award that goes to a 14-17 year old girl who volunteers in her community to make her community and world a better place.

Application Deadline:  April 1, 2019
