American Family Insurance has committed to inspiring, protecting and restoring the dreams of middle school girls across Georgia. Through the Free to Dream initiative, American Family Insurance is working with Atlanta Falcons Fans to bridge equity gaps, build healthy, sustainable communities and fight for social justice. We are combining our resources with our collective hearts, souls and minds to heal and empower our communities in Georgia. We will not stop until we are all free to dream fearlessly.
To ensure girls across Georgia are Free to Dream Fearlessly, AmFam has invested $20,000 in GEM, Girls Empowering Movement. Help us double the impact of our contribution to this incredible initiative with your donation!
GEM, Girls Empowering Movement, is a statewide initiative to increase physical activity and fitness levels of Georgia’s middle school girls AND motivate almost 200,000 girls to get moving and engage their communities by taking action to implement physical activity programs that are designed by girls, for girls.
COVID-19 has magnified health disparities and increased mental health issues for adolescents, adding to the rising levels of anxiety and depression already faced by middle school girls.
Research has shown that engaging in regular physical activity can improve cognitive and mental health and physical self-perceptions, enhance self-esteem, and lower levels of anxiety, stress and depression.
Girls Empowering Movement is a collaborative initiative led by HealthMPowers in partnership with: Boys and Girls Clubs of Georgia, Girl Scouts of Greater Atlanta, Girl Scouts of Historic Georgia, and the University of West Georgia. Learn more at: www.HealthMPowers.org/GEM
Join the Girls Empowering Movement and make an investment in this work. Only together can we get Georgia girls active, develop their leadership skills and help them make an impact in their own communities!
Thank you AmFam for making sure we are Free to Dream Fearlessly!
