Mission Statement
Girls E-Mentorship (GEM) is a top 100 rated charity offering a research-based mentorship program for high school girls facing socioeconomic barriers to build their professional skills and achieve their academic and career potential.
About This Cause
Girls E-Mentorship (GEM) was founded in 2012 from a vision that all young women should have the opportunity to succeed despite where they’ve come from or what barriers they’ve faced. We believe that women mentoring girls is essential in fostering the success of the next generation, and critical to creating gender equity in Canada. Since 2012, GEM’s innovative mentorship program and skill-building activities along with scholarships and internships have transformed the lives of over 559 BIPOC girls. 96% of our graduates attended post-secondary school, 94% gained leadership and professional skills, 84% received a post-secondary scholarship, and 76% were accepted into their first choice post-secondary school. Each year GEM is forced to turn away more girls than we can admit due to lack of funds. The demand for GEM’s mentorship program is great. Your support will help girls to reach their full potential, and emerge as empowered women and future female leaders.
