Girls Rock St. Pete
Girls Rock St. Pete works at the intersection of art and activism, empowering women, girls, and gender expansive folx through fearless expression, artistic experimentation, and collaboration to build confidence and leadership skills to transform ourselves and our communities.
Girls Rock isn’t just a slogan, it’s a movement designed to amplify the voices of women and girls to create social change. Girls and gender expansive youth ages 8-17 arrive at Girls Rock with little to no musical experience. They are provided an instrument, assigned a band, and are asked to write an original song together in five days to perform to over 1,000 people at a large rock venue. This may seem impossible, but the campers navigate this model in a highly supportive environment that allows them to take risks and experience collective failure and success.
The Girls Rock model intercepts girls during that critical age when their confidence plummets- addressing the root of the well-studied gender confidence gap. Instead of learning to fit in, campers are engaged in authentic self-discovery led by an all-women crew of teachers, counselors, and musicians. Girls learn to support each other, love and care for their bodies, and engage in the work of social justice. Girls Rock launched their first-ever Ladies Rock Camp because women deserve safe spaces to discover themselves, overcome intergenerational trauma – and ROCK OUT!

Stewards of Our Urban Lakes
Stewards of Our Urban Lakes (SoUL), a 501c3 not-for-profit organization based in St. Petersburg, engages and educates the community on the need to protect the quality of our urban lakes by organizing volunteers to conduct debris cleanups, shoreline plantings, and non-native species removal. Since urban lakes are often the form of nature that people typically encounter on any given day as they walk through their neighborhood or favorite City park, SoUL directly benefits the community through improved recreation and appreciation of our natural heritage as well as neighborhood aesthetics and economic value. As an outdoor-oriented activity, participation in our cleanups is a physically enriching activity that draws youth volunteers away from their electronic distractions and keeps adult and senior volunteers active and healthy. These environmental activities provide positive mental and spiritual stimulation that is good for society, and a continuing source of civic pride.
Justice Over Everything
Justice Over Everything is a social justice center that recognizes that saving individuals from the burning house only saves one person at a time. To truly foster change, we must confront the inferno that is our justice system. This involves enlightening citizens about the profound effects of policies and legislation on their daily existence, championing those ensnared in the justice system, and advocating for change rooted in the lived experiences of our community.
