Today, we commemorate the profound impact of Title IX, a landmark piece of legislation that has transformed education and athletics in the United States. Title IX states: “No person in the United States shall, on the basis of sex, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any education program or activity receiving Federal financial assistance.” This simple yet powerful statement has paved the way for monumental changes, ensuring equal opportunities for all students, regardless of gender.

As we reflect on the legacy of Title IX, we reaffirm our commitment to upholding the principles of equality and fairness in all aspects of our Girls Inc. enrichment programs. We recognize the progress made and acknowledge the work that still lies ahead in achieving true gender equality.

We invite you to join us in celebrating the achievements brought about by Title IX and in continuing the fight for equality and inclusion. Together, we can ensure that every student has the opportunity to thrive, regardless of gender.
