Moving Beyond Boundaries: Celebrating and Empowering Girls and Young Women
Moving Beyond Boundaries is a lively event benefiting Oasis For Girls. The evening is a social event with appetizers, cocktails, and an audience of business people, community leaders, activists, nonprofit professionals, and artists who are committed to the success and growth of Oasis For Girls. We are honoring our inaugural Community Leadership Award recognizing women leaders who have made a difference in their own lives and communities living our mission.
Our audience is representative of the City and County of San Francisco from working-class to affluent and moderates to progressives. Our Advisory Board, volunteers and donors are comprised of business professionals, nonprofit and community leaders, activists, students and artists.
Our Vision: The vision of Oasis for Girls is to cultivate generations of strong and creative women who realize their potential, live healthy lives and make a positive impact in their communities.
Our Mission: The mission of Oasis for Girls is to provide a safe space where girls and young women are inspired and empowered to become strong and creative leaders in their communities.
Oasis for Girls provides culturally relevant and gender specific Arts and Arts Education, Leadership Development, and Life Skills Education programs that support the growth of low-income and immigrant and young women of color in urban communities. Through these programs, girls and young women have access to a community of adults who support them in creating change and integrating their skills to address issues they face in their lives and in their communities.
Who We Serve
The young women and girls that we serve, reflect the rich diversity of the SoMA district and other neighborhoods throughout San Francisco. They range in age from 11 years to 24 years. They are Latina, African American, Asian, Arab, Pacific Islander, White, and multiracial. The majority are first generation Americans, however, many of them are also recent immigrants. Most speak languages other than English in their homes. They are all unique and often times face hardships of acculturation while striving to maintain pride within their own heritages. They are intelligent, creative, compassionate, and remarkable individuals with innate leadership and potential.
Oasis For Girls is a proud project of the Tides Center.
