    About Leigha’s Girls

    Leigha’s Girls is a Las Vegas nonprofit organization creating safe, supportive spaces where girls ages 10–18 can build confidence, strengthen life skills, develop healthy relationships, and discover the power of their own voices.

    We are seeking dependable, encouraging volunteers to support our school-based mentorship programming at a Clark County School District school.

    • Support small-group discussions and hands-on activities
    • Help facilitate lessons involving confidence, leadership, communication, healthy relationships, creative expression, and practical life skills
    • Encourage girls as they participate, reflect, collaborate, and share their ideas
    • Model respectful communication, healthy boundaries, accountability, and compassion
    • Help maintain a safe, organized, and positive space for every participant

    Volunteers will not be expected to lead the program alone. Curriculum, materials, and direction will be provided by Leigha’s Girls.
