Seventeen years ago, Girls in the Game opened its doors to girls in Chicago. Our founders believed in our mission and believed they could make a difference.

Today, less than four percent of national foundation dollars support girls' programs. We’re thankful for those organizations that recognize the value in what we do, and we’re grateful for the support we receive through grants from foundations and corporations who share the vision of our founders.
