Too many girls learn to limit their ambitions before they've had the chance to discover what they're capable of. For 10 years, Inspiring Girls has been working to change that, reaching more than 250,000 girls face-to-face and over 1 million online. But there are millions of girls we haven't reached yet.
This October, Inspiring Girls International is proud to be part of Big Give's Women and Girls Match Funding Campaign (6–13 October 2026). Give this week, and your donation is doubled (£25 becomes £50) so whatever you give goes twice as far, helping more girls grow up believing their future is theirs to choose.
If you can see it, you can be it!
Inspiring Girls International is a global charity dedicated to expanding girls’ career ambitions and breaking gender stereotypes. By connecting 11–16-year-old girls with diverse female role models, we help them gain the skills, confidence, and inspiration to achieve their full potential.
