What would a parent say about Global Girls? "I'm so glad my daughter joined Global Girls. She used to be shy and would always cling to me because she is the baby in the family. But now that she's been in Global Girls, she has joined organizations in school and is much more lively with her friends. I've even taken more risks since I started learning about the Global Girls way."
From Vanessa McGee, mother of Global Girl Te'Reah Fields |
