Mission: Athena’s Warehouse Inc. is dedicated to the fight for equitable education for women, gender non-conforming, and non-binary people. For over a decade we've provided scholarships, workshops, and mentorship for youth ages 15-25.
Target demographics: young women
Direct beneficiaries per year: 34 students
Geographic areas served: Atlanta, GA
Programs: Taught by trained professionals, the program is divided into workshops that address key teen topics, such as healthy eating, positive body image, teen pregnancy and std prevention, domestic violence, and career preparation (for 35 participants).
led by a certified yoga, the trauma-informed program is designed to develop a strong sense of personal development and self-awareness. Students spend nine weeks journaling, covering topics such as stress, responsibility, and coping mechanisms. The sessions foster healthier minds, bodies, and self-esteem through a combination of journaling and yoga practice.
we match girls with strong young professional women in the community for 1:1 mentoring. For 16 weeks, girls and mentors meet under facilitated, structured curriculum and strengthen bonds based on mutual respect and trust. We explore topics such as healthy peer-to-peer relationships, conflict resolution and social justice. In the second half of the year, students focus on developing stronger relationships with their peers and building leadership skills. Girls meet on a weekly basis, independent of their mentors, for facilitated group work and continue to build upon their foundation. Mentors visit on monthly basis.
