Forgirlsake: Common connection (Trafalgar), smart women, common goal. Forgirlsake is a great example of what happens when bright people come together with focus and passion to make a difference.
Grateful for the education and benefits they had as girls, the Forgirlsake team have chosen to try to make an impact in the lives of girls in less fortunate places or circumstances. They appreciate the power of a good education.
This group inspires with all that they do, from their online presence, social media activity, local events and their site-specific visits.
Thumbs up to the Forgirlsake group – wouldn’t it be great if we could make this kind of team, approach and effort contagious!

This charity was started by my dear friend, Sheryl. I know that she has personally visited many of the girls around the world who are able to attend school because of the work of Forgirlsake. Sheryl puts her whole heart into her projects and personally oversees how the funds are spent. This is a very well-deserving charity doing very important work!
I was involved with Forgirlsake right at the beginning and then left for a few years. I recently returned and offered my services to do their new website. Coming from an all girls high school, I understand the importance of a good education and what a better way to give back than to help other girls in less fortunate positions get a good education.

I met one of the founders, Sheryl Stotland and learned about Forgirlsake inc. I joined forces with them and made and sold jewelry and donated the proceeds. I plan to keep donating. The work that Forgirlsake Inc does is truly amazing. Sending underpriviledged girls to school and teaching them skills to be able to make a living. This organization is run by women that care. I strongly recommend them to anyone looking to donate to a cause.
For Girl's Sake was started by my very best friend Sheryl Ludwick. She decided she wanted to make a difference in the lives of girls in underdeveloped countries by helping them to receive the best education possible. Through the years, with the passion and perseverance shown by Sheryl, Stephanie Zelman and the other members, I have seen this organization grow and really make a huge difference in the lives of girls all over the world - Kudos to For Girl's Sake!!!!
For more than a decade, Forgirlsake Inc. has been a catalyst for hope and positive change in my life. I link arms with the powerfully enlightened women who work to improve the lives of girls climbing out of poverty in developing countries. By funding educational initiatives, Forgirlsake opens doors; but just as meaningfully, opens EYES. Women who participate in Forgirlsake signature sporting and fitness events see with renewed clarity the urgency of the mission, bonding with fellow sports enthusiasts. Forgirlsake offers a compelling way to fund raise while cementing lifelong friendships! "Women in action, taking action!"
