Review for Enchanted Closet, Inc., Atlanta , GA, USA
I volunteer on the Enchanted Closet's Program Development Committee. This group works together to develop and deliver programming throughout every month during the school year to help increase the self-esteem, self-awareness, and self-sufficiency of girls. I coordinated the organization's October GIRL$ program, "Tell Me, Then Show Me," which was designed to reduce the fear of public speaking and help girls to confidently express themselves in front of others. The program involved multiple presenters, including a 10-year old motivational speaker, and ended with an improv workshop. At the start of the program, the girls were hesitant to volunteer to answer questions or present in front of the group. By the end of the program, every girl in the room was volunteering to be heard. It was truly amazing to see the girls blossom in such a short period of time. I know in my heart that the Enchanted Closet changed lives that day as they do with all of their programming.
