who We Are

Founded on the belief that every woman and girl deserves opportunity.

Many women and girls navigate life without guidance, affirmation, or access to supportive communities. EmpowerHER NC exists to change that across North Carolina, generation after generation.

When women rise, families and communities rise with them.

EmpowerHer NC believes every woman and girl deserves access to opportunities, mentorship, and resources that help them thrive academically, professionally, and personally.

“Before EmpowerHER, I didn’t believe my ideas were worth saying out loud. Now I’m the youth lead on a community advocacy project – and my school listens.”

Maya joined our mentorship program in 7th grade. Three years later she’s organizing peer workshops, presenting to the school board, and applying to early-college scholarships. She is one of 1,200+ girls EmpowerHER NC has walked alongside since 2016.”
