OUR PROGRAMS

HerRise STEM Squad Program – The program is a one of a kind network for young girls age 14-18 of color offering monthly spring and fall activities and a summer career employment curriculum as part of an intensive, multi-session initiative intended to build upon career exploration for young girls in high school. Specially designed to strengthen girl’s confidence, potential for leadership and in-demand STEM skills. Scholars earn a wage for attending and learn financial literacy.

HerRise MicroGrant Program – The Yva Jourdan Foundation, Inc. through it’s partnership with Women on the Rise NY, Inc. dba HerSuiteSpot provides women small business owners with the capital,  tools and support you need to be successful. We offer entrepreneurial training, a small business grant, business advice, and a wealth of resources.

Just As I Am Reading Program – The reading program allows our volunteers to go into schools or learning facilities where inclusion classrooms are found to read storybooks on special needs acceptance. The school will be provided with books for students to take home and read with their families throughout the school year. TYJF understands the importance of inclusion classrooms and we believe that this program will help teach kids to be more accepting of others with all types of special needs.  In order to meet this goal, we are asking for donations or sponsorship’s from individuals and organizations.Just As I Am Reading Program
