At Girls Leave a Mark, our purpose is to spark transformation from the inside out—empowering young women, especially teenage mothers and at-risk youth to rise above the weight of their past and boldly shape their future.

We exist to be the bridge between adversity and achievement, between surviving and thriving. Through intentional mentorship, real-world education, and unwavering support, we help teenage mothers and young women tap into their inner strength, reclaim their narratives, and become the authors of their own legacy.

Because when a girl realizes her worth, she doesn’t just leave a mark—she leaves a movement.

Our goal is to provide these young women with the tools and resources they need to make informed decisions and pursue their dreams. Together, we can create a brighter future for generations of young women to come.

👑 Taylor Garzolás | Miss Division
👑 Angeline Rhodes | Mrs. Division
👑 Ingrid Odle | Classic Mrs. Division

✨ A big thank you to Taylormade Kitchen, LLC for providing delicious international cuisine that matched the richness of our dreams.
