  • Empowerment Programs for Girls

    Cool Girls, Inc. is dedicated to the self-empowerment of girls in Atlanta by providing direct service to underserved youth. We provide the tools that help under-resourced and economically disadvantaged girls make positive choices to help them achieve academic success; lead healthy, active lives; break the cycles of poverty, teen pregnancy, and domestic violence; and overcome the barriers of racism and sexism. All of our award-winning programs are direct-service and are provided completely free-of-charge.Cool Girls provided 28 weeks of quality, evidenced-based programming virtually. While weekly modules/activities continued virtually , we hosted safe, in-person outdoor activities Saturdays. These activities ranged from photography workshops to hiking in Arabia Mountain Park. This year we were also able to award $70K in scholarships to 17 dynamic Cool Scholars pursuing higher education; more than doubling our scholarship awards last year and decreasing college debt.
