The Grit & Spunk Impact Lab is where stories meet science to accelerate gender equity and strengthen health for all. It is where we dare to create a world built on bold ideas that empower us. We are helping to shape possibilities and unlock opportunities so that together, we can build a global community where girls rise, women boldly chart their paths and courage becomes the way forward.
The Grit & Spunk Impact Lab evolved during a career gap. As I reassessed my skills and passions, it became undeniably clear that social impact was where my future lived. Learning that millions of girls were still out of school and understanding that women’s empowerment and health were closely tied to education ignited something in me. I realized my voice and storytelling could drive change. So, I started right where I was, doing the good I could. That spark became a business; thus Grit & Spunk Impact Lab was born. Nonetheless, I needed a clear message.
The approach would be to operate with the bold and clear focus that girls and women need to embrace ‘Grit and Spunk’ to harness opportunities and resources as they fight to transform their realities and future.
Through grit, spunk, and a relentless belief that resilience and hard work can transform futures, we help mission-driven organizations generate meaningful social change.
