Here at Girls Positivity Club, we believe that every girl has the potential to be great. Unfortunately, many girls are held back by societal pressures and negative stereotypes that limit their opportunities and self-confidence. That's why we're here to provide a supportive community where girls can come together to learn, grow, and shine.
Through our clubs, small groups, and summer camps, we offer a range of activities that promote self-esteem, leadership skills, and personal growth. Whether it's learning a new skill, trying a new sport, or making new friends, we aim to create an environment where girls feel comfortable being themselves and pushing themselves to achieve their goals.
In addition to our regular programs, we also host exciting events throughout the year, such as workshops, guest speakers, and community service projects. These events give girls the chance to connect with like-minded peers and mentors, as well as to explore new interests and passions.
Ultimately, our goal is to raise a generation of confident, empowered girls who are ready to take on the world. We believe that every girl deserves the chance to reach her full potential, and we're committed to making that a reality through Girls Positivity Club.
About Girls Positivity Club
Why The Girls Positivity Club Was Created
After noticing patterns in girls across 4 different school environments related to struggles with self-esteem and confidence, and having struggled into adulthood with low self-esteem and lack of confidence and strategies herself, founder Melissa Jones now uses her personal transformation and research with experience-based strategies to elevate girls to live their best life while linking arms in a community centered around growth and empowerment.
Melissa uses techniques that are responsive to the unique needs of each group of girls in creative and engaging activities that motivate girls to take action toward feeling confident and empowered focusing on their strengths instead of their challenges.

This mission to empower girls means so much to me because I was a girl who struggled with my confidence and self-worth growing up. It worsened in middle and high school and eventually took me to my darkest place, where I was sitting on the edge of my parent's bed, holding a gun in my hand. Luckily my mom walked into the room at that moment of me deciding if my existence mattered, and she got me into therapy. Over the course of my 23-year teaching career, I noticed young girls still struggling with the same challenges, and it spurred me to have lunch with my fourth graders to find out if they wanted to learn more about building their confidence and self-love. They named it Girls Positivity Club, and it quickly grew from a lunchtime experiment to after school club. I now have women-leading clubs in Indiana, Illinois, Florida, Africa, and Jamaica.
