Miss Merit had a great time at I Am Back to School! 

We had the opportunity to meet wonderful girls, their families, and phenomenal women leaders who share our vision and mission for empowering young women. As part of the #IAMBTS event, we had a 'submit your own badge contest' where girls had a chance to draw or write the badge they'd like to see created. Please click here to vote on the ideas--the winner will get to work with our designer to create their badge! 

Stay tuned in the next few weeks as we release the date and location of our next workshop. Heading back to school can be tough for girls with new teachers, coursework, peers, and experiences. Let's support them as they navigate! Miss Merit is heading BACK TO SCHOOL!

Don't forget to check us out on social media. We'll be sharing lots of tidbits on anti-bullying, notable women, kindness initiatives, and much, much more! Join the #meritocracy!

Miss Merit will have a booth at the I AM Back to School event on August 6th at the Machine Shop in Minneapolis! 

This event is a celebration of girls ages 8-18, supporting the importance of kindness as girls go back to school in the fall. Spearheaded by Sarah Edwards of the IAM movement in Minneapolis, this event brings fashion, music, dance and art together for a night of glamour and fun and features a wide array of vendors supporting our shared mission: empowerment for young women! Girls and their families and friends will have the chance to partake in a scavenger hunt, attend a fashion show, peruse and shop local vendors, and meet and greet each other and Minneapolis' innovative entrepreneurs! To learn more and buy tickets, visit www.iambacktoschool.com. This is a great opportunity to meet the founders of Miss Merit, and others who hope to connect and support young women. We hope to see you there!

First Camp a Huge Success!

A fun time was had by all at the first Empowerment Camp on June 25th! Girls had a chance to meet Hailey from the Beautifully You Movement, listen to her book, and learn about Miss Merit badges. We played games, made Merit Maps, learned tools to stay strong in the face of bullying, shared stories, had a dance party, and last but not least, learned about each of our special qualities and the importance of supporting ourselves and others! PHEW!  This popular workshop is being held again in July--and spots go quick-- so make sure to sign up the young girl in your life ASAP!
