This Week's Local Outreach Partner Spotlight:
GirlUp GVL

"Enriching young women with positive formative experiences that replace obstacles with opportunities."

Join us this Sunday, July 10, for our adult elective to hear about GirlUp GVL! GirlUp GVL exists to serve middle and high school girls from under resourced communities in Greenville, SC through experience, enrichment, and empowerment.

Experience
Opportunities to explore new things help girls to develop a sense of self as well as discover their gifts and talents.

Enrich
Structured routine, regular academic assistance, and a trusted advocate create a path to personal fulfillment.

Empower
Developing responsibility and life skills create confidence, which leads to better choices and a brighter future.

There are lots of ways to jump into GirlUp GVL’s ministry! Their volunteer needs include transportation, providing meals, academic tutors, mentors, career hosts, and helping out in the garden, among others. Meet us in the Sanctuary at 10:10AM this Sunday to learn more. Check out their promo video below:
