As an educator, I have been blessed to meet so many dynamic and wonderful students. However, one thing that stood out to me was the lack of confidence and self-esteem most girls had about themselves.
I can remember being in class and asking my students if they felt intelligent and valued. It was heartbreaking to see that most of my girls thought otherwise. To hear them verbally state that they didn’t feel good about themselves was so disheartening.
Therefore, I made it a priority to pour into them every chance that I could and with God’s help and favor, my girls would enter my classroom one way and leave out a brand-new young lady.
Witnessing these transformations and recognizing that there was a greater need to reach and teach students outside of the standard school curriculum sparked the creation of Project 22 & 6 Mentoring Program.
Our mission is to help girls build their confidence, self-awareness, and overall well-being by utilizing a social-emotional learning approach. In addition, we educate and support girls by teaching them important virtues, life lessons, and principles.
Thank you in advance for supporting Project 22 & 6 and coming along with us on this beautiful journey to continue enriching the lives of the next generation.
With love & gratitude,
Erica
