Our Mission

Project GameChangers addresses the underrepresentation of women in leadership by fostering and normalizing assertive qualities in girls through the unique platform of Ultimate Frisbee.

Our Story

Project GameChangers was born from the vision of creating a future where assertive leadership in young women is celebrated and they lead change in their communities and beyond.

Our Impact

Through our unique sport-based curriculum, we've empowered over 100 young women with leadership skills, confidence, and the ability to create change in their communities.

Get Involved

The Challenge We Face

Young women in India face significant barriers to leadership development and community participation.

Urgent Funding Need

We need immediate support to continue our programs and expand our reach. Your contribution directly impacts young women's lives across India.

Limited Access: Many young women lack opportunities for leadership development and skill-building programs.

Cultural Barriers: Traditional gender roles often discourage assertive leadership in young women.

Resource Constraints: Limited funding restricts our ability to reach more communities and provide comprehensive training.
