What was your dream when you were ten years old?
What do you wish you had known then?
Powerful Voices turned ten years old in 2005. In
celebration of a decade of innovative, all-girl programs, we invited people
across the country to share their dreams and wisdom with girls.
To see a slideshow of the responses we received, go here.
We know that girls possess big dreams and deep wisdom. As a girl in our
middle school program shared,
“I want to become a professional dancer. I want to get A’s
and B’s. I want to help my mom out lots. I want to stay healthy.
I want to be happy and live a long good life.”
Our programs work because we listen intently to the girls we serve. We
also know that support from adults-- family, guardians, mentors and friends--
can help girls to grow into strong women.
As we look forward to the next ten years, we have big dreams for girls.
Thank you for sharing your wisdom and for supporting
our work.
