Incredible Girls

Incredible Girls is about contemporary girls under the age of 25 who are doing awe-inspiring and significant things in the world. Nominated by our community, these girls are changing the world through new inventions, advocacy, and overcoming challenges that sought to limit them.

Every Friday in 2019, we post a column detailing the life of an Incredible Girl and why you should know about her.
