Powered by People: Ways to Get Involved

April 23, 2026

This Volunteer Appreciation Week, we’re taking a moment to recognize the people behind the impact at GEM.

Our work is powered by volunteers — individuals who show up with intention, generosity, and a belief in what’s possible for young women. Whether you’re mentoring, supporting programs, sharing your expertise, or helping us grow our community, your contribution shapes every part of what we do

Because of you, a young woman walks into a space and feels like she belongs. She asks bigger questions. She sees new possibilities for her future. And she begins to believe in her own potential in a deeper way.

Your impact doesn’t end when a session wraps or a program concludes. It carries forward — into classrooms, careers, and communities.

We are deeply grateful for the time, care, and energy you bring to GEM. This work would not exist without you.

Want to get involved? Here are a few ways to join our community:

  • Become a mentor and support a young woman through her growth journey
  • Volunteer at events, workshops, and GEMinars
  • Share your skills through guest speaking or career panels
  • Join a regional or corporate committee to help expand our reach
  • Support our work through partnerships or donations

If you’ve been thinking about getting involved, there’s a place for you here. Head over to the “Join” page on our website to learn more.

Together, we’re creating pathways to possibility — one connection at a time.

With gratitude,
The GEM Team
