Sisters Giving Back is a community-driven nonprofit dedicated to empowering girls and young women through scholarships, leadership development, and meaningful programming. Since 2011, we have provided opportunities that help girls build confidence, prepare for college, and create pathways to long-term success.
Because when you invest in a girl, you help change the trajectory of her life.

Fundraising

Sisters Giving Back holds several fundraising events throughout the year to raise money for our youth conferences and annual scholarship awards. These events provide a chance to not only raise money but help build a community of people consistently giving back to the next generation of leaders.

Scholarships

Three recipients each year are awarded a scholarships to apply towards college. To be eligible the recipients must be enrolling at a U.S. accredited college or university as a full-time, degree-seeking, first-year student in the fall. Scholarships are awarded at our Annual Black Tie Scholarship Gala every spring.

Youth Conferences

We hold an annual Teen Girls Conference in Philadelphia every October providing workshops focusing on confidence, fashion, and social media. The girls participate in skits and other activities that boost self-esteem, self-confidence, and encourage public speaking.
