On Friday, December 19, 2008 Girls in Motion-Minnesota will hold their 1st Annual Holiday Gala-Fundraiser and Clothing Drive at Centerfield’s Restaurant and Bar located at 119 North 4th Street in downtown Minneapolis, starting at 7pm. Join us for food, fun and music at this wonderful event.
This year event will be hosted by America’s #1 Exercise Physiologist, located right here in Minneapolis – Shelia St. James (www.SUPERWOMAN.cc) – a professional Clinical Physiologist, Motivational Speaker and Hurricane Katrina Survivor who believes in the mission of Girls in Motion-Minnesota. St. James says, “Girls in Motion-Minnesota shows that young women from every walk of live can achieve their goals in education and independence. It is the right season for young women to present themselves as leaders while helping the community to build capacity – one young woman at a time.”
This fundraiser and clothing drive is to recognize Girls in Motion-Minnesota–a youth run organization focused on leadership goals for young women in the Twin Cities. Girls in Motion-Minnesota ask that you bring NEW coats, scarves, hats, gloves, mittens, and socks to help keep our young girls warm this winter season (All sizes for all ages K-7).
About Girls in Motion-Minnesota:
Girls in Motion-Minnesota is a youth organization that is founded and lead by two students from Minnesota: Jazzmin Brooks and Dafina Bobo both 15 years of age. It is important for young girls to dream that the world can be a better place. Therefore, it is more important to teach them how to gain the skills needed to participate in that change. Ultimately, Girls in Motion Minnesota prepares girls for excellence in academic career and their community. One of our motto’s at Girls in Motion Minnesota is, “Girls can make the world a better place one girl at a time.” We believe that when you help one girl in our organization you help us all.
Our mission is to promote excellence in education, vocation, leadership, civic service and the arts through a variety of educational and career opportunities. Provide a forum where all girls can come together to discuss career and college preparation, promote literacy and a positive self-image, develop leadership and civic skills. Our goal is to take these skills learned from Girls in Motion-Minnesota activities and put them into action in our communities. With your help, we can make sure that Girls in Motion-Minnesota continues to empower girls to lead dynamic and purpose driven lives.
Our core values are based on the seven Kwanzaa Principles: Umoja (Unity); Kujichagulia (Self-Determination); Ujima (Collective Work and Responsibility); Ujamaa (Cooperative Economics); Nia (Purpose); Kuumba (Creativity); Imani (Faith)
Our program targets girls in the Minneapolis/St. Paul communities in grades five through twelve. We meet quarterly around the metropolitan Twin Cities at sponsored locations and we volunteer at local charities and community organizations quarterly. It is our hope that girls who join or participate in Girls in Motion Minnesota activities will learn to define their goals and dreams. Girls who participate in our workshops learn how to support each other and personal endeavors. Girls will create service learning projects and promote literacy among their peers. By using this innovative platform, it will promote healthier relationships between girls, families and communities. The result is increased self-esteem, better choices and actively planning for a future of success.
