Who We Are
Teen girls thrive when they are equipped with confidence, guidance, and real opportunities to grow. Awesome Ambitions is dedicated to empowering girls from underserved communities to recognize their value and build a path toward successful futures. Through mentorship, leadership development, and real-world career exposure, we equip them with the skills and support needed to succeed in education, careers, and life.
With the support of committed volunteers and community partners, we have impacted thousands of girls across Kansas City, providing meaningful experiences that inspire them to lead with purpose and achieve their greatest ambitions.
Hear from our
awesome girls!
Awesome Ambitions Helped me get into a great college and now I am able to volunteer and give back to the younger generations! Thank you to all the volunteers and sponsors who made it happen, I was able to get scholarships I didn’t even know existed.
I did not know anyone in Kansas City when I first moved here. The group helped me meet new people and learn how to encourage women to succeed. I am in College now and am volunteering as a mentor this year.
