Grow & Glow Collective (GGC) is a North Carolina-based nonprofit that empowers young girls to embrace their potential, develop leadership skills, and tackle life’s challenges with confidence. By providing holistic programs, we are shaping a brighter future for girls aged 8-18.
Let’s be honest, growing up isn’t all lip gloss and TikToks.
Girls deal with cramps, drama, body changes, mood swings, pressure to be perfect, and like… life. From first periods to fake friends, we know it can get overwhelming.
At GGC, we talk about the stuff no one else does, the awkward, the emotional, and the just plain hard. No filters. No shame. Just real support and real talk.
You’re not too much. You’re just growing. And we’ve got you.
No One Taught Us This Stuff
Most girls start their period with little to no real info. School skips the details, and nobody talks about what’s actually normal.
Mental Health Is No Joke
Girls are stressed, overwhelmed, and not feeling heard. Suicide is the 2nd leading cause of death for ages 10–18. We’re here to talk, support, and change that.
NC, We Need to Talk
Teen pregnancy rates here are higher than the national average. Girls deserve real info, support, and zero shame. Period.
We’re not just fixing problems we’re building up smart, bold, world-shaking girls who know their worth and own it
Schools provide comp menstruation education.
500 students served annually by Year 3.
$200,000 annual funding goal to expand programs.
What You Do = Big Impact
Mentors, career coaches, event hype crew, whatever you’re good at, your time can literally change a life.
Sponsor with purpose. Partner with us to create real change for girls, not just clout. Impact hits different when it’s authentic
At Grow Glow Collective, the magic doesn’t stop after one season. We’re always dreaming up new ways to empower girls ages 8–14 with confidence, creativity, and community.

The Grow & Glow Collective invites you to sign your girl up for the Academic Year, where she’ll enjoy hands-on workshops, mentorship, and guidance to help her stay grounded and growing all school year long.
The journey doesn’t stop after summer! At GGC, we’re committed to guiding girls ages 8–14 through every season of growth with empowering, age-appropriate experiences that build confidence, self-love, and sisterhood.

Each experience is designed to help your daughter shine in her own way while feeling safe, seen, and supported.
Growing up isn’t always easy. Girls deal with real stuff, like not learning about their bodies, feeling stressed or sad, and getting pressure from everywhere.
That’s where we come in.
GGC helps girls feel strong, smart, and supported with:
Real talk about periods and growing up
Confidence + career skills for high schoolers
Support for mental health + smart choices
We’re here to help you glow through it all.
In NC, 1 in 10 births is to a teen mom and 65% of them don’t finish high school.
The glow-up gets harder when support is missing. We’re here to change that.
Suicide is the #2 cause of death for teens. In NC, 14% think about it and mental health visits are up 41%.
You’re not alone, and your mind matters.
Only 20% of schools teach periods (ugh). GGC’s changing that , reaching 500 girls a year and growing to 10 counties by 2026. Let’s gooo!
We could talk all day about how awesome GGC is, but the real proof? It’s in the stories from the girls, families, and communities we serve.
From glow-ups to breakthroughs, here’s how GGC is actually making a difference.
