Our journey began in 2020 with a mission to spark meaningful conversations. We started by shedding light on women’s health, which laid the foundation for expanding into financial literacy and sustainable living. As we grew, so did our vision. With the Green Kit initiative, we adopted a holistic approach, broadening our focus to include the impact of endocrine disruptors, our carbon footprint, and the importance of conscious consumerism. Girls and young women are powerful economic influencers, with U.S. teens spending an estimated $77 billion annually—predominantly driven by girls. Through FTY’s programs, we empower them with the knowledge to make informed, sustainable choices that will provide better health outcomes and quality of life. We’ve also integrated financial literacy, career development, leadership, and life skills, creating a well-rounded approach that empowers girls to thrive in all areas of their lives. Our work within local high schools and middle schools extends beyond education, providing essential resources and nurturing the confidence young girls need to succeed academically, lead with purpose, and reach their full potential. As we continue to evolve, we remain dedicated to equipping girls with the tools to live independently and sustainably, making informed decisions across all aspects of their lives. We are proud of our progress and excited for the future as we empower the next generation of leaders. --- Testimonial “FemTruth Youth has been life-changing in shaping who we are and how we approach period- and health-related products. From challenging taboos to raising awareness about sustainability, we've empowered ourselves to make a difference. This experience has not only broadened our understanding of female health and wellness issues but also instilled in us a sense of responsibility to continue educating ourselves and serving as ambassadors within our generation, families, and communities.” — Green Team Interns, 2024
