Many years ago, we created Dads for Daughters, an auxiliary group of Girls Inc. of Orange County, to highlight the important role dads (and male role models) play in supporting girls in becoming strong, smart, and bold.
Men can be powerful allies and partners in creating a more equitable world for girls.

Thank you to those who participated in this year’s Father’s Day fundraiser.
Because of you, today’s girls will gain confidence, learn to navigate gender, economic, and social barriers and grow into healthy, educated, and independent adults. All gifts will support the Girls Meet the Workforce program. Click here to see more!
We wish a very Happy Father’s Day to our dad honorees.
Thank you for serving as role models and inspiring those around you!
