Founded in 1976, we have a nearly 50-year track record of delivering high-quality, evidence-based programs that empower girls to grow up healthy, educated, and independent. Our vision is a world in which every girl values her whole self, discovers her inherent strengths, and achieves her full potential \u2014 a society where all girls have equal opportunities to succeed in their education, careers, and lives.<br \/>\nWe serve girls ages 5\u201314 in Knox, Blount, and Anderson Counties through programming delivered at our main center, in schools, and in partnership with community organizations. Our participants represent a highly vulnerable population facing multiple, intersecting challenges: 52% identify as minorities, 53% come from households earning under $40,000 annually, 61% qualify for free or reduced school meals, and 81% of families require financial assistance to participate in our programs at all. Without that aid, 8 in 10 families simply could not afford to enroll their daughters. Seventy percent of our participants come from female-headed households, and 49% are being raised by single mothers alone \u2014 meaning Girls Inc. often serves as a critical safety net for working mothers who need safe, supportive, enriching care for their daughters. Additionally, 32% of our participants have identified medical, behavioral, or learning needs, requiring individualized support and trauma-informed approaches.\n<\/p>\n<p>Total Project Budget: $5,000<\/p>\n<p>Other Funding <br \/>\nSources For The Project (Committed &amp; Potential): <\/p>\n<p>Project Duration: One Year<br \/>\nGeographical Area Served: East TN <br \/>\nAge Group To Be Served: 5-14<\/p>\n<p>Contact Information<\/p>\n<hr size='1' noshade='noshade' \/>\n<p>Contact Prefix (Mr,Mrs etc.): Ms.<br \/>\nContact First Name: Amanda<br \/>\nContact Last Name: Ingle<br \/>\nContact Title: Executive Director<br \/>\nContact Phone: 865-482-4475<br \/>\nContact Email: operations@girlsinctnv.org<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hermanowski Family Foundation Initial Request Form Organization Name: Girls Incorporated of Tennessee Valley Legal Name (if Different): Also Known As: Girls Inc.
