We’re excited to announce the completion of Girls Supporting Girls’ latest school in Sinthiane, Senegal, funded in partnership with the Lycée Francais de Chicago.

Thanks to your support, 102 children now have new classrooms and improved learning conditions for the upcoming school year!

The community of Sinthiane contributed the land and natural resources such as sand, water and gravel to the project. Sinthiane residents also contributed 1,387 volunteer work days to the building of their new school!.

We can’t wait to see more pictures of girls and boys learning side by side in this new school.

Zaila Avant-garde won the 2021 Scripps National Spelling Bee Thursday evening, becoming the first African-American champion in the event's history.

Upon her win, Avant-garde, who is also a talented basketball player, jumped up and down and let out an excited shout as confetti rained down on the stage.

Chaitra Thummala, a 12-year-old from Frisco, Tex., and Bhavana Madini, a 13-year-old from New York City, came in second and third place, respectively. Jody-Anne Maxwell of Jamaica, who won the bee in 1998, was the competition’s first Black champion.

We’re so excited to be able to share pictures of students at GSG’s first Guatemala school, which was funded and built last year and recently opened for in-person learning!

The school in Caserio Sanguijuela has eight teachers serving 140 students in seven grade levels. None of this would be possible without your generous support!

Watch for news of the groundbreaking of our second Guatemala school later this year.
