It Takes Just One Day to Impact a Foster Youth's Life!

As we celebrate Foster Care Awareness Month, Project Glimmer is thrilled to announce our upcoming Day of Giving on May 30th, where every gift will be doubled thanks to $25,000 in matching gifts waiting to be unlocked!

All month, you'll hear from inspiring foster teens defying the odds. At Project Glimmer, we break the cycle of poverty by nurturing confidence through mentorship, leadership training, and career pathways. It takes only one day to make a difference and we hope all of you will join us!

"By showing up, asking questions, and being enthusiastic at my first Day of Empowerment, I got a summer internship. My foster experience prepared me to work hard—to create my own future.”

"We talked about resumes and linking my business website to my LinkedIn so my customers can find me, and that was big because I need that to be booming!"

How Can I help?

Our programs do more than inspire and empower the girls we serve – they also transform our partners, from corporations to families who give together.

 

“These girls deserve to feel successful. Opportunities like these allow them to try something new and build a sense of self.”

Keri Kirby, Edgewood Center for Children and Families

“I want to empower these girls to make their own decisions. I want them to know their success is not defined by others.

Liz Williams,
Panelist, Sephora Day of Empowerment

“This partnership is our chance to show love and support for these young women, who we know will do extraordinary things.”

Bianca Gates & Marisa Sharkey,
Founders of Birdies
