Each month, we feature different girls from Girls Inc. of the Seacoast Area, a program of the Jeanne Geiger Crisis Center and an affiliate of Girls Incorporated®, a national research, education and direct advocacy organization that inspires girls to be strong, smart, and bold.
This month, we are featuring Solange!
About Solange:

STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math)! You can build stuff and work together.
Which season is your favorite and why?

My birthday and to do more things with my friends. I didn’t get to do a lot during Covid, but I am excited to hang out with all my friends.
