Empowering Young Girls to Dream Big

Let's Do This

March is Women's History Month and what better way to empower the young girls in your life than by showing them powerful examples of inspiring women? Take some time to talk to a young girl about women she looks up to or aspires to be like. What does she see in them that she wants to emulate? How can she learn from their example? 
It doesn't matter whether it's Ida B. Wells, A'ja Wilson, a mom, a grandma, or a neighbor down the street who's always ready with a smile and hug. Throughout history and present-day, you don't have to look far to find empowering women who lead by example!

Stay Inspired

This booklist from the Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh showcases a few of the singers, artists, dancers, writers (and one zookeeper) who helped shape our culture. Pick out a book to read together and learn about the historical and ongoing contributions of women and girls!
