Girl on Fire
Women empowering women
JLW's Girl on Fire program focuses on educating young women on how to stand up for themselves and what confidence is. n the last year, the Girl on Fire committee has created a customizable curriculum to meet the needs of different community groups throughout the Ohio Valley. Groups can pick up to six modules (Empowerment, Confidence, Personal Branding, Growth Mindsets, Emotional Intelligence, and/or Mindfulness) to create a program that best suits their expectations and needs. Each module contains interactive exercises, take-home worksheets, and informational material all focused on building strong and independent women. Girl on Fire looks forward to working with even more community groups in 2020.

Janie S. Altmeyer Playground
We believe in the power of play
The Janie S. Altmeyer Playground Rejuvenation Project involved swapping out dated materials with more sustainable substrates, two additional Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) compliant attractions and new playground surfacing.
Phase 1 of the project was completed in the Spring of 2016 and spanned five days and required the support of more than 300 community volunteers! Phase 2 of the project was completed in the Spring of 2017 and consisted of new playground surfacing.
