Launch Girls is a nonprofit dedicated to equipping adolescent girls with the skills, information, and support required to enter and thrive in the world of work. We are a team of gender experts who specialize in using entrepreneurship education to create economic empowerment programming for adolescent girls.

Launch Girls is a registered 501c3 non-profit in the United States. We are a fully remote team with members who live and work around the world in the U.S., Kenya, and India.

Launch Girls is a knowledge partner and does not do any direct program implementation. We partner with local organizations across Southeast Asia and Africa that are working closely with adolescent girls ages 12-24. We focus on building the capacity of our partners and provide comprehensive tools including curriculum, training, technology, and facilitator's guides to successfully deliver programming.

Launch Girls works with organizations from around the world that are dedicated to supporting and empowering adolescent girls and young women, even if they are co-ed. We work with two different types of partners: Institutional and Remote. Remote partners are community-based organizations, nonprofits, and/or schools that need Girl Boss programming, have dedicated facilitators for programming, and are able to cover all implementation costs. These organizations have access to the internet and technology and are digitally proficient to undertake online and virtual training. Institutional partners are national or international nonprofits, government institutions, and/or school systems that serve a minimum of 10,000 girls ages 12-24 from underserved communities. They need a holistic intervention to support the girls they work with and are looking for a partner to help them transform and enhance their ecosystem.

Launch Girls has worked with partners in 13 countries India Kenya Rwanda Ghana Nigeria Cameroon Uganda Brazil Peru Haiti USA Colombia Nepal

While both girls and boys benefit from developing 21st-century professional skills, girls often lack the same access, freedom, and encouragement during adolescence. Launch Girls recognizes that girls must develop their own agency and be prepared to navigate economies that may not be designed for their success. By applying a girl lens to professional skills, knowledge, and support, Launch Girls aims to empower girls to overcome these obstacles and achieve equal representation, fair pay, and opportunities for advancement. While boys are welcome to participate in our programs, our focus remains on meeting the needs of underserved and overlooked adolescent girls.
