Strong Girls United

SG United Foundation (“Strong Girls United”) is a nonprofit organization with the mission of empowering girls to be strong, confident, and resilient through sports, mentorship, and mental health programming. As an official charity partner of the Boston Marathon, we're excited to share how your support will directly impact girls of all ages right here in Massachusetts.

One of our flagship programs, "Strong Girls U," embodies our commitment to fostering leadership and empowerment. Led by college female student-athletes, this program not only inspires young girls but also cultivates the leadership skills of our mentors. Through coaching, leadership development, and mental skills training, our student-athletes become role models and coaches in their local communities. Our unique curriculum blends sports with mental health and well-being activities, ensuring inclusivity and reaching underserved communities.

To expand our reach and serve high school female athletes, we've introduced "The Foundations," a comprehensive curriculum designed to integrate mental health skill-building into sports. This 10-module program benefits athletes, coaches, and athletic directors, offering concise lessons that encompass educational videos, individual reflections, and team activities. "The Foundations" empowers participants to enhance mental well-being, promoting personal growth both on and off the field. At SG United, we empower girls for life, providing opportunities for girls of all ages to join our community, whether as participants, mentors, or volunteers. We believe in infusing mental skills training into every aspect of our programming, recognizing the critical importance of mental health. Your contributions will enable us to offer Strong Girls U and Foundations programs locally, ensuring that all girls, regardless of financial barriers, can join the team and benefit from our empowering initiatives.

Together, we can foster “Strong Bodies, Kind Hearts, and Unstoppable Minds.” Thank you for your support!
