    Description

    Volunteer Mentor – Meet + Mentor Program

    Meet + Mentor connects women professionals with middle school girls for short, structured conversations that spark confidence, broaden career awareness, and help girls imagine what’s possible. This is a no-prep, low-lift volunteer opportunity—perfect for busy professionals who want to make a meaningful impact in a short amount of time.

    Play Like a Girl brings girls together to explore STEM, build confidence through sports, and connect with real mentors who show them what’s possible for their future. You can play a key role by:

    • Joining small groups of girls for rotating conversations
    • Answering simple prompts about your career journey (and life!)
    • Building rapport, encouraging curiosity, and offering advice
    • Participating in light activities (no technical skills required)

    Your presence helps girls gain confidence, discover new interests, and picture themselves in fields where women are still underrepresented. Your time and energy genuinely shape how these girls think about their strengths, their goals, and what they can achieve.

    Please note that registration for a session does not guarantee placement. A separate confirmation will be sent to confirm your spot.
