August 3, 2022 – Sarasota
Now through the end of August, all gifts to Girls Inc. of Sarasota County will be matched dollar for dollar up to $150,000, thanks to the generosity of Charles & Margery Barancik Foundation, Virginia B. Toulmin Foundation and an anonymous donor. With the support of these foundations, Girls Inc. will continue their mission to serve girls who need them most.
Girls Inc. provides evidenced-based programming, by trained professionals who focus on the development of the whole girl, supporting, mentoring, and guiding girls in an affirming, pro-girl environment. Through afterschool, summer and outreach programming, the organization serves girls to build lasting skills across every facet of their lives, from healthy decision-making and critical thinking to perseverance and leadership. Money raised during the campaign will support scholarships for girls to attend afterschool and summer programming at Girls Inc. It will also support Girls Inc.’s ongoing partnership with Sarasota County Schools, helping to ensure that girls in the Sarasota area have access to intentional, research-based, and age-appropriate programming.
Girls Inc. President & CEO, Angie Stringer, expressed how important the August Match is, “We are thankful to Charles & Margery Barancik Foundation, Virginia B. Toulmin Foundation and an anonymous donor, for this generous support that will change girls’ lives, and ensure they have the foundation to develop their inherent strengths and create a better future.”
