As a nonprofit dedicated to empowering young women, the safety and well-being of our students is our top priority. We work with minors, and in order to ensure a secure environment for them, we require all volunteers to undergo a background check. This process not only provides peace of mind to the parents and guardians of our students but also reinforces our commitment to maintaining the highest standards of safety. Please rest assured that all information obtained during the background check is kept strictly confidential and will not be shared with anyone outside of our organization. It will not be made public, nor shared with employers or any third parties. To help cover the costs of this essential background check, we request a $36 donation from each volunteer. Your support in this process is greatly appreciated and helps us continue offering meaningful and safe experiences for the young women we serve.
