Since she was first introduced into Girls Rule program, the changes in Haylee are astronomical. She now stands up proud with her head held high, she makes eye contact when speaking and I can see a brilliant, beautiful, and bold leader emerging from my little girl. The Girls Rules foundation has truly been a blessing in my families lives.” – Jennie

Mckenzie had a wonderful camp experience, and she’s been applying the lessons from camp ever since. In fact, we journal two to three nights a week using the notebook you provided. We work on one of the pillars each week. Lately, we have been sticking to the Responsibility pillar. We’ve both written down the things for which we want to be more responsible, like listening to our greatness voices vs. our smallness ones, and then we talk about ways to do so. We check in with each other on our progress the nights we journal, and if we don’t do as well as we wanted, we figure out ways to do better. It’s such a good way to end the day, spend time together, and set ourselves up for success in everyday life and the future.
Also, before camp, McKenzie wanted to start a business, and she had started coming up with ideas for one that went in all directions, but she stopped at the ideas, wanting me to come up with the “how.” Now that she’s been through the Wings to Fly camp, she’s come up with a business idea, a name for it, a business plan — everything. She’s even budgeted the amount she’ll need to start the business and make a small profit. And because I’m inspired by her progress and she has the “know how” now to guide me, the business I have always wanted is in the works, too. I’m very proud of her! Thank you! -Shay

- I want to say thank you to all the coaches! Thank you for changing my daughters perspective on herself, and how she interprets others. I can not stop reflecting on the impact and positivity that has infiltrated our home because of camp and all that we have learned. Looking forward to camp 2017! – Nicole Nosecchi
