Event to Showcase Girls Inc.'s Eureka! Program

In today's changing world, science and technology equals opportunity.  The girls who participate in Girls Inc. of the Island City's Eureka! Teen Achievement Program are engaged and encouraged to view these fields as options for their future.  

Even more, girls who participate in Eureka! report that they have a stronger belief in their ability to go to college, better self-esteem and ambition. 

 Please join second year participants from the inaugural class of Eureka! for an inside look into Girls Inc.'s life-changing program at our 2nd Annual Eureka!thon.

See first-hand what girls in our Eureka! Teen Achievement Program have learned during this summer's intensive 4-week program, which focused on biology, chemistry, physics, personal development, sports, design and information technology.
