For the remainder of the year, we will be bringing you the stories of those organizations and insight into how they aid their communities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Today we bring you the Goleta chapter of <a href=\"https:\/\/girlsincsb.org\/\">Girls Inc<\/a>., founded in 1864. At Girls Inc., its mission is to inspire all girls to be strong, smart, and bold. With partnerships with schools and 79 local affiliate organizations, Girls Inc. focuses on the development of the whole girl which has the same core values today as it did when it was founded.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cA combination of long-lasting mentoring relationships, a pro-girl environment, and evidence-based programming equips girls to lead fulfilling and productive lives, break the cycle of poverty and become role models in their community,\u201d shares Jen Faust, CEO of Girls Inc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The executive board approved a new two-year strategic direction to strengthen the organization to serve powerful girls in an equitable society. The strategy encompasses six key elements:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Increase access to programming<\/li><li>Develop workforce and retain staff<\/li><li>Increase partnerships and community engagement<\/li><li>Advocate on important platforms<\/li><li>Enhance brand identity<\/li><li>Shore up infrastructure<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe will be sharing updates with the community as we begin implementing and making investments to ensure Girls Inc.&#8217;s organizational and program foundation is stable, strong, and poised to serve our mission to meet the urgency of the moment,\u201d said Faust.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Funding from Yardi has provided comprehensive programming to address all aspects of a girl\u2019s life and help her develop personal strengths and leadership skills. It is because of support from Yardi and others that the youth receive programming to grow up healthy, educated, and independent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWhen you support Girls Inc., you are telling a girl that she has someone in her corner who believes in her unlimited possibilities. Together, we can increase the number of girls who can develop their inherent strengths, break past barriers to achieve their full potential, and learn to advocate for themselves and for others,\u201d shared Faust.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Ways you can get involved<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In past years, Yardi staff in Santa Barbara have volunteered as servers at Girls Inc.\u2019s Thanksgiving dinner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe believe that when girls and women succeed, everyone benefits \u2013 the family, the community, the economy, and our society. Let\u2019s keep changing the world together,\u201d exclaimed Faust.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To learn more about Girls Inc. and how you can be involved check out their website <a href=\"https:\/\/girlsincsb.org\/events\/she-is-beautiful\/\">here<\/a>.
