Girls in the Know St. Louis

I went through ‘Sex Ed’ in 5th grade and only learned about my period instead of the wide variety of women’s sexual reproduction, sexual health, and mental health. It took a long time for me (I’m 26) to understand self-love and care, and it’s not a ‘one and done’ type of action. It’s a process every day to choose it, and sometimes it’s more difficult than others. These remarks are from a young donor. At GITK, we know that knowledge is power, and we are committed to supporting women and girls in our community with the knowledge they need to be empowered.

Let's change the narrative of what equality looks like for women and girls. Gloria Steinem said it best we should stop saying, "We can do anything that men can do." And encourage spaces for men to say, "We can do anything that women can do." This is how we can start changing what the future holds for our girls!
