Charles Schwab Volunteer Week

Charles Schwab hosted their annual Schwab Volunteer Week the week of May 22nd. Girlstart hosted two groups of volunteers and they were packed full of fun and productivity.

On May 23rd, a group of Schwab employees volunteered their time getting materials ready for our Summer Camp to-go programs. Volunteers assembled over 400 engineering journals for girls, assembled nametags, cut out cardboard for our Girlstart Galaxy camp, and so much more. We are thankful for all of their hard work getting us ready for our camps!

Girlstart hosted a second group of volunteers on May 24th at the Girlstart STEM Center. Over 20 volunteers joined us and helped get our building ready for the first group of campers. Volunteers painted our summer camp counselor room, set up two computer labs, power washed picnic tables, planted new flowers, filled bean bag chairs, and more. Volunteers worked tirelessly to cross off all of the items on the to-do list. Thanks to them we are now ready to host 14 weeks of camp at our facility!
