CareerGirls.org is a free, noncommercial, online platform which showcases video clips of diverse women role models sharing career and educational advice to inspire young girls to expand their horizons, improve their academic performance, and dream big about their futures. While based in San Francisco, the crew has travelled around the United States interviewing dynamic and accomplished women and filmed over 350 role models from Houston, Chicago, Washington, DC, Philadelphia, St. Louis, New York City, Boston, Detroit, San Francisco, Silicon Valley, San Diego and Atlanta – everyone from ballerinas to astronauts to federal judges.
