About Girls Inc. of Alameda County

Girls Inc. of Alameda County’s vision is for all girls growing up in Alameda County to feel valued, safe, and prepared to achieve their dreams of college, career, and leadership.

Our partnership and impact

Zoom Cares awarded a grant to Girls Inc. as part of the 2024 HerFuture grant round, supporting their work equipping girls aged 5 to 19 with access to no-cost resources and opportunities including education and skills scholarships and workshops, mentoring, apprenticeships, after school programs, school supplies, field trips.

“GIAC operates on a hybrid basis, with staff in the office two days a week. Zoom is essential for all staff, department, and one-on-one meetings, ensuring seamless connectivity. In 2023, we switched to Zoom Phone for increased convenience and cost savings. Zoom Phone allows us to use personal devices while displaying Girls Inc. as the caller, which is crucial for our fundraising team. It also enables hands-free communication through computers, boosting productivity.”
