2021 Annual Report

Now more than ever, our adolescent girls need BIO Girls.

62% of girls suffer from low self-esteem and the pandemic has resulted in increased mental and physical health concerns.

For the past nine years, BIO Girls has been a valuable resource to adolescent girls and their parents. Leading with a mission-first mind-set, every decision is purposeful in pursuit of our vision: a world where all girls feel confident enough to be their bright, bold, beautiful self – inside and out. This is evident through organic growth of participants served, volunteers trained, and donors thanked. And shown through our response to adversity and focus on the future. As chronicled in this report, BIO Girls celebrates the impact we have made and details preparations for the future where 1 in 6 North Dakota girls participates in our programming annually.

We understand the mental and physical health crisis faced by our adolescent girls extends beyond the services we can solely provide. But we are giving it our all, and with your support we made an incredible impact in 2021. With this report, we honor you, our advocates and donors, who understand the challenges our girls face and the support they require to know they are

Beautiful Inside and Out. Together, we are a force.

Thank you.
