Mentoring 10,000 Girl Scouts

Happy International Day of the Girl. In honor of the day, I want to look back on the chance I had to mentor at the National Girl Scouts Convention this past summer.

In July, the National Girl Scouts Convention, Phenom by Girl Scouts, drew nearly ten thousand attendees who came together to learn, celebrate, and explore. As a mentor, I represented Running Start and spent the event teaching hundreds of young girls about running for office, advocacy, and how to give an elevator speech.
