Our mission at Girl Up Orlando involves giving back to those less privileged so this year we selected a girl from Guatemala named Jaquelyne-Roxana to sponsor. Throughout these 11 days, we hope to raise $420 to fund her education and give her basic resources for a full year! Please consider donating!!

NETFLIX PARTY
All the attendees will be watching the movie "Mean Girls" which follows a young girl in a new environment overcoming new challenges. At Girl Up Orlando we want to promote healthy discussions about topics previously avoided so we will also have a discussion the following day about the movie.
