About Us

Girl Up is a non-profit organisation born within the United Nations Foundation in 2010. It is based in Washington, D.C. and has 3500 clubs in approximately 155 countries and all 50 US states. Guided by their youth leaders’ vision for more direct action and deeper grassroots connection, in 2025, Girl Up transitioned to its new fiscal home at Global Fund for Children.

Their leadership development programs have impacted 430,000 girls worldwide with their primary focus on helping adolescent girls in developing countries have an equal chance at education, health, social and economic opportunities and a life free from violence.

IE Girl Up Club has joined this global movement dedicated to promoting gender equality and empowering girls worldwide. Join us now!

Our Mission

We want to be able to put IE at the forefront of positive change and be able to inspire our next generation to fight for what they believe in, as we strongly believe that actions speak louder than words.
