Overview
Mission
Positive Character Girls, Inc. is organized exclusively for charitable and educational purposes under Section 501(c)(3). Our primary exempt purpose is to provide mentoring, academic support, social-emotional learning, life skills development, literacy enrichment, and wellness programming for girls, teens, single parents, and underserved families in low-income communities. Through afterschool programs, summer camps, tutoring, leadership development, and family support services, we work to strengthen character, improve educational outcomes, promote healthy decision-making, and empower youth and families to become productive, confident, and successful members of the community.
What it reported doing in 2025
The organization provided year-round mentoring and social-emotional learning programs for middle and high school males and females from underserved communities. Services included weekend mentoring sessions, leadership development, conflict resolution, self-esteem building, life skills instruction, health and wellness education, and exposure to positive role models. Approximately 25 youth participated throughout the year. The program helped improve emotional regulation, confidence, peer relationships, school engagement, and positive decision-making skills. These teens were trained to become Teen Camp Counselors during our Winter and Summer Camp programming.
Operating model

- Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.

The verdict
MIXED - The filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
