GLI Alumnae

OUR GLI NETWORK IS 500+ STRONG!
Join our network of over 500 women leaders who have graduated from our institutes. Graduates of GLI go on to become student government leaders, yearbook editors, team captains, and club presidents. They take their Action Plans and make positive changes in their communities.
GLI encouraged me out of my shell. The Institute pushed me beyond the limits of what I had known about pretty much everything.

Mentoring is an amazing opportunity for me to reflect on where I was, to recognize just how impactful GLI has been on my journey from the place I was to where I am now, and, most importantly, to give others the very advice I needed back then. Even if nothing else sticks with my mentee, my hope is always that my mentee is reassured through our conversations. I hope that they realize that though high school is a challenge, they will be okay — my experience is a testament to that fact! I made it, so they can too!
GLI Mentor
As a mentor, though my interaction with my mentee was virtual, I found it interesting to hear from a student who was exactly where I was not too long ago. Though we're different people with different fears, different hopes, and different lives, our differences are surprisingly outweighed by our similarities.
GLI Mentor
Being a mentor allowed me to learn more about the hopes and needs of upcoming women leaders. It is such a special experience to listen to what is important to them and how passionately they want to improve the world, exchange words of advice, and I loved being able to metaphorically extend a hand to guide forward another young leader on her journey.
