Step Up members are women with a passion for empowering girls and a commitment to mentorship. Explore our member levels below and choose which impact level is right for you.
Effective August 25, 2022, current Step Up members will need to create a new account to view all future transactions. Thank you for your understanding!
Explore our membership levels below and select the investment and impact that’s best for you. With your membership, you will enjoy opportunities to mentor Step Up teens and young women, and have access to programs that inspire continued growth and connections in your own career!
Your membership dues are both an investment in yourself and an investment in the next generation of women leaders. For example, members who join at the Luminary Circle level and commit to donating $1,000 per year are underwriting one year of Step Up mentorship programming for one girl. While you’re investing in her future, you’ll be enhancing your own through your participation in Step Up community and network-building programs for members.
As a member, you’ll want to frequently visit the Step Up calendar to register for upcoming programs that interest you. Also make sure to subscribe to Step Up emails to receive invitations and announcements. Already a member? Step Up invites members to write supportive and motivational messages to our mentees. We look forward to seeing you at a program soon!

A dollar-for-dollar match is common, but some companies contribute two or even three dollars for each dollar an employee gives.
