spotlight: smart girls group

Girls today have a lot of online distractions: Instagram, facebook, snapchat, ask.fm. Finding online communities that are positive and inspiring can be a challenge, but here's one that will help teen girls grow into strong, thriving young women!

The Smart Girls Groupis an online community, run by girls, for girls. SGG publishes a monthly digital magazine on politics, culture and girl life. In addition to this, Smart Girls Group has a blog titled Smart Girl’s Loop, where you can find articles on health, empowerment, style,and colleges. The site also contains a Smart Girl’s Sister Hood, an online home for the Smart Girl Sisters that serves as a place for girls to interact virtually with each other in a safe, fun and supportive environment.

The Smart Girls Group is run entirely by girls in high school and college, creating a space unique to teen girls. Teens can become involved through the online classes offered (like on social media savvy),the book club, or through an internship. Above all, a visit to SGG is an inspirational reminder of the amazing things girls are capable of when they work together. No need to wait till adulthood to achieve something special!
