About

Join HER Village: Volunteer with Encourage H.E.R. Academy

At Encourage H.E.R. Academy, we believe girls thrive when they are surrounded by a village that sees them, hears them, challenges them, supports them, and reminds them of what is possible.

Our mission goes beyond mentorship. We create intentional experiences that help girls ages 6–17 build confidence, strengthen leadership skills, explore their interests, develop life skills, and become who they are called to be.

And none of that happens without people who are willing to show up.

Why Volunteer with EHA?

When you volunteer with Encourage H.E.R. Academy, you are not simply filling a role or completing service hours. You are becoming part of a community committed to helping girls grow into confident, capable, and courageous young women.

Your time, talents, experiences, and connections can help a girl discover something new about herself, experience an opportunity she may not have otherwise had, or simply know that another caring adult believes in her.

As part of HER Village, you may have the opportunity to:

  • Mentor & Encourage — Build meaningful relationships and help girls navigate confidence, leadership, friendships, goals, and life beyond the classroom.
  • Share Your Gifts & Expertise — Introduce girls to new skills, careers, experiences, and perspectives through workshops and special programming.
  • Create Meaningful Experiences — Help us bring engaging events, community experiences, service projects, and enrichment opportunities to life.
  • Strengthen HER Village — Connect with families, community partners, and other women who believe in investing in the next generation.
  • Help Expand What She Believes Is Possible — Sometimes one conversation, one connection, or one new experience can change the way a girl sees her future.
