Our vision is that 100% of Certified GEMs graduate high school feeling like they have a strong sense of sisterhood and responsibility to one another. They will be self-assured, college-bound, and career-focused so they can become the girl bosses they were born to be.

“Being a part of GEMs was an experience that will always mean a lot to me. It taught me a lot about myself and even more about how to start a business. It's worth the experience and if you ever get the chance you should experience it as well.”
