Step Up provides hands-on volunteer opportunities for its members with underserved teen girls.

Step Up Women's Network leverages the talents and skills of our members to offer year-round Teen Empowerment programming for underserved girls. Partnering with schools and community centers, the Step Up Teen Empowerment Program is innovative and comprehensive as it develops girls into the "Total Woman" – a woman who is healthy, confident, educated, career-minded, philanthropic, and ultimately the Step Up member. Our programs focus on three pillars:

  • Leadership and Self-Esteem
  • Career Development
  • Health and Well-Being

All programming is designed to be fun and interactive while allowing Step Up members to mentor and act as positive role models through volunteerism. Many of our programs run the entire school year as we partner with schools experiencing drastic budget cuts.
