Young Girls to Become Self-Reliant and Live a Healthy Fulfilling Life
Heba Mawad Legacy Nurtures the Mindset, Skills, and Confidence Needed to Thrive
We are a non-profit organization dedicated to transforming the lives of young girls from lower socioeconomic backgrounds and high-risk communities.
We provide girls between the ages of 13 and 17 with a safe, supportive, and nurturing environment that encourages them to explore their untapped, underdeveloped potential. We are devoted to helping them identify and develop their unique talents, interests, strengths, and weaknesses, learn about career paths, gain life skills, and nurture their entrepreneurial spirit.
Ultimately, we strive to create a society of self-reliant girls who can confidently engage in their communities while maintaining their cultural, ethnic, and traditional identities.
Program Overview
Gift Of Life
Our “Gift of Life” program is an all-encompassing approach to bridging the gap between better life opportunities and lack of resources for young girls ages 13-17 in disadvantaged communities.
We partner with schools to implement our program during the school year and even involve the local community centers and private organizations to help us reach more girls and provide a safe space for them to discuss and learn. Our mentors and guides are school staff, successful community professionals, and college students who are driven to help young girls reach their full potential.
The Core Elements of Our Program
Making Career Pathways Accessible
Since career exploration is foreign to many of these young girls, ‘Career Pathway’ helps them understand the different opportunities they can pursue and the qualifications they need to attain them. We introduce them to successful industry professionals, mentors, and community leaders who help them make better college and career decisions. These professionals also help develop and implement comprehensive systems of high-quality college and career pathways designed to maximize the potential for student success.
Promoting Physical Fitness for a Healthy and Active Lifestyle
Our Fitness program allows young girls to engage in physical activities, learn about nutrition and health, and build their body confidence. We also help them make healthy decisions to reduce the risk of childhood obesity. This program is offered in partnership with local organizations to ensure the girls can access the best possible resources.
Building Connections through Experiences
It’s vital that young girls have exposure to different cultures, experiences, and activities outside their own. So, we take them on field trips to explore the world of art, culture, and athletics. We visit the High Museum, attend performances by the Atlanta Ballet, or watch professional sports games. These exciting experiences broaden our girls’ horizons and inspire them to lead fulfilling lives. These ‘Connections’ are often what the girls consider to be the highlight of their year.
Fostering Spiritual Growth and Self-Awareness in Young Women
The third, yet most vital, component of our program is Divine Love. We strive to inspire deep spiritual conversations with our girls to help them build strong minds and hearts and gain the courage to overcome their fears and temptations. Our girls learn how to use faith to understand their purpose in life and achieve success. Besides, the open and accepting environment fosters a sense of belonging and allows our girls to explore their spirituality without judgment.
Growing While Giving
We strongly believe in the power of community service and how it makes this world a better place. Our ‘At Your Service’ program encourages our girls to participate in various initiatives throughout the year to give back and help others. This service also allows them to gain a unique sense of purpose and develop a sense of responsibility and social consciousness.
