About us
We're the big sister in the room.
From elementary school to college, AI for Girls Enterprise gives girls what a good big sister does: someone a few steps ahead who answers your questions honestly and sticks around after the event is over.
Where it started
It started after the events.
Our facilitators, our mentors and our founder kept staying behind to answer questions. The questions kept coming.
How do I get an internship? Is it okay to use AI on my homework? What do I say when an interviewer asks about AI? We answered every one honestly, the way you'd answer your own little sister.
That's who we are. Not a lecture hall, not a sales pitch. A big sister who's been where you're going and tells you the truth about getting there.
The big sister promise
Three things we do every time.
From second grade to senior year of college, this is how we show up.
Every workshop ends with time for your questions. We don't leave until they're answered.
Real answers about school, jobs and AI, including the parts that are hard to hear.
A girl who starts with our book in Junior can find a mentor, a workshop and a scholarship waiting in college.
