Empowering Girls to Code, Create, and Change the World

For over a decade, we've been proving that every girl has the power to solve problems. We've just gotten better at showing her how.

WHO WE ARE

Amazing Girls Science empowers girls ages 8-18 to become technology innovators and problem-solvers through our Technovation Program

We started with big science conferences. Today, we partner with an after-school program to give girls something even better: 12 weeks to build real apps solving real problems in their communities.

OUR MISSION

Close the gender gap in STEM by giving girls the skills, confidence, and community to succeed in technology—through sustained, local, partnership-based programs that create lasting transformation.

60%

work in STEM careers (vs. 29% nationally)

500+

girls we serve annually through our partnership model

OUR EVOLUTION:
FROM GOOD TO BETTER

THEN

Large annual science conferences where hundreds of girls explored STEM for one exciting day.

COVID-19 Challenged Us
How do we continue serving girls when we can't gather?

NOW

Partnership model delivering sustained 12-week programs through local after-school organization.

THE RESULT

Deeper impact, better outcomes, more girls reached—not despite the change, but because of it

Sometimes being forced to reimagine what's possible is exactly what's needed.

SUCCESS STORIES

Real Girls. Real Apps. Real Impact.

"I almost didn't come that first day. Now I introduce myself as 'someone who knows how to code.'"

- Sofia, Age 13

Last year, our technovation teams built:

  • An app helping elderly neighbors stay connected and safe

  • Technology connecting patients to ambulances with real-time tracking

  • Solutions reducing food waste in school cafeterias

  • Tools helping students with disabilities communicate

  • Apps teaching sign language to hearing communities

These aren't classroom exercises.
These are real solutions.
