Description Are you a smart, witty, informed writer who wants to be a part of a movement that empowers women? Join us!

Project GirlSpire, a global social change initiative that promotes sisterhood, female empowerment, and the equal rights + treatment of women and girls by telling their stories + exploring their passions + art. We love learning about women and girls, who are doing incredible things in their communities and/or the world at large.

We provide a global platform for the stories of girls and women to be told, their imaginations to run loose, their voices to be heard, their interests to be discussed and encourage them to be the truest versions of themselves. We’re informative, raw, accepting, creative, and original. We create a vast range of content that ranges from book talk to STEM, art to music, movies to TV, fashion to advocacy, world issues to education, events to gender and sexuality. We have something for everyone’s interests, but we choose to create, inform, celebrate and promote as opposed to criticizing and condemning. We celebrate and embrace diversity and culture, and believe it’s possible to be positive and still remain true to ourselves. We aren’t cool because we do what’s popular, we’re cool because we’re uniquely ourselves and know no other way to be. Responsibilities -You must be tenacious enough to find stories no one else is writing

-Decide on what type of pieces you'd like to write (human interest, lists, entrepreneurship, pop culture, book reviews, etc.)
-Stay up-to-the-minute on trending pop culture and lifestyle news that affect girls and women locally, domestically, and globally.
-Production of new articles, video and social content.
-Brainstorm new ideas and topics to cover
-General editorial duties like fact checking, interviewing, transcribing and copy editing
-Write daily articles, blurbs, headlines, copy, social media posts, you name it.
