Each year, volunteers provide thousands of hours of service to Girls Inc.
of Tarrant County. Their generous gift
of time (and dedication) helps us provide quality programs to the girls we
serve throughout the county. Recently,
students from UNT visited Girls Inc. as a part of their participation in the “UNT
Take Flight Job Shadowing Program”. It is
a 1-5 day job shadowing experience that provides students with the
opportunity to observe and
network with professionals, investigate a career field, clarify career goals,
and function within a work
environment.

Several
students visited with Girls Inc. staff and learned about their job roles. Some of the students shared their thoughts
about their experiences and Girls Inc.
“I really appreciate the opportunity and
gained some valuable knowledge. It’s very encouraging to job-shadow someone who
is so dedicated to a great cause. I hope to see you soon when I start
volunteering.” -- Kristen
“Thank you for the chance to see the
amazing things Girls Inc. does for young ladies! These girls are smart,
charming, and fun to be around! Thank you for working with UNT to provide
students like me a chance to see how an impactful organization such as Girls
Inc. is run. I had a lot of fun. It was a rewarding experience!” -- Elizabeth
Girls Inc. has a number of volunteer
opportunities available that include (but not limited to) assisting with sports
clinics, 5K Races/Walks, fundraisers, administrative duties, and weekly
programs. If you are interested in
volunteering with a dynamic team, please contact us. We will be more than happy to speak to you
and help you find the perfect opportunity within the organization.
Special thanks to all of the UNT
students who volunteered with us recently.
We appreciate your enthusiasm and we look forward to seeing you again!
