Check out these great pictures from the groundbreaking of Girls Supporting Girls’ next school in Huehuetenango, Guatemala! Even though we couldn’t be there, we share the excitement of the community.

The new school will replace a temporary wood structure with dirt floors that was not sustainable during the area’s long rainy season. Stay tuned for more pictures as work continues.

Ready for some good news? (Part Two)

As Covid restrictions have eased in Guatemala, our team got the green light to begin construction of GSG’s school in Huehuetenango. Groundbreaking is scheduled for July 20th! These are pictures of the temporary structure that currently serves as the community’s school. Stay tuned for “after” pics!

Construction has begun on our second school in Malawi – the project spearheaded by GSG Junior. Check out these video clips from the (socially distanced and masked, but still very celebratory) groundbreaking ceremony!

NASA Administrator Jim Bridenstine announced today

NASA Administrator Jim Bridenstine announced today the agency’s headquarters building in Washington, D.C., will be named after Mary W. Jackson, the first African American female engineer at NASA. “Mary W. Jackson was part of a group of very important women who helped NASA succeed in getting American astronauts into space. Mary never accepted the status quo, she helped break barriers and open opportunities for African Americans and women in the field of engineering and technology,” said Bridenstine. “The Mary W. Jackson NASA Headquarters building appropriately sits on ‘Hidden Figures Way,’ a reminder that Mary is one of many incredible and talented professionals in NASA’s history who contributed to this agency’s success.” #femaleeducatedempowered #agirlcan #girlrising #girlssupportinggirls 🚺🚺🚺

Right about now, we should have been packing our bags to head to Guatemala to help break ground on GSG’s latest school. Though that’s not happening, we’re thrilled that construction will still start later this summer.
And while our awesome GSG Junior team won’t be heading to Malawi to start on the school they funded, that school is set to break ground on July 7th.

We’re sad to not join these projects in person, but so happy more children will have places to attend schools as the world figure out a new normal. Thank you for your support to help make this possible!
