Unite for Girls Tour: Seattle

November 2010

In November of 2010, we followed up L.A. with Seattle. Founding partner WNBA’s Seattle Storm team hosted a reception at their offices, and the next day we held our Pep Rally. Students made signs to show their support for Girl Up and were so enthusiastic about what they were learning that they stayed later to dance and continue to share facts about girls in developing countries.

Be sure to look for our Unite for Girls Tour events in your city in 2011! Until then, check out our blogs, photos, and videos below from our Unite for Girls Seattle stop!
