PROGRAMMING

FP Movement Celebrates Girls Inc. All Month Long

This November, FP Movement spotlighted its partnership with Girls Inc. with a month-long celebration and a series of empowering events.

Girls Inc. participants joined FP Movement for a fun photoshoot where they shared how Girls Inc. has positively impacted them. Girls Inc. participant Jozlyn said, "When you're in Girls Inc. you don't feel judged for anything that you say or do." Our second event took place at 95th Street Elementary, where girls learned a dance routine with FP Movement partner Cristina. Finally, our Marina Del Rey Middle School girls were invited to the FP Movement LA office, where they created a mood board, sketched and filmed content.

We're deeply grateful for FP Movement's ongoing investment in our girls! On Thanksgiving Day, FP Movement is donating 100% of net proceeds to support Girls Inc. Shop for a cause now at fpmovement.com.

Art + Culture Field Trip

Our friends at the Experimentally Structured Museum of Art (ESMoA) welcomed our girls for a day of art exploration and creativity.

The field trip included a tour of their gallery, sketching their favorite art pieces and crafting clay sculptures of their favorite animals. At the Xicana! exhibition at El Camino College the girls saw the artwork of Chicana artists. They learned about the Chicana movement, the importance of representation and the power of storytelling through art.

Exposure to art and culture fosters creativity and expands their horizons, shaping them into strong, smart and bold leaders.

Thank you to Marvin Elkin for making this field trip possible in honor of Simona Elkin.

Inspiring all girls to be strong, smart and bold!
