Braincake isn’t some fakey attempt to pander to teens. It reflects the GMSP’s—and Jen’s—commitment to creating a set of programs by and for its audience: teen girls.

How much do we value bringing global cultures and opinions into our institution?

Changing lives is expensive whether you do it with at-risk teen staff members or at-risk teen virtual partners.
