About Our Organization

The Girls of Transformation Mentoring Program, Inc. (GOT) is a 501(c)3 organization founded in 2010 by Sonya Woodard. Our mission is to serve girls aged 8-18 who exhibit at-risk behaviors that could negatively impact their lives. We're driven by a passion to introduce young girls to Christian values in a way that's relatable and empowering, helping them walk boldly in their God-given identity. To achieve this, we partner with parents, community organizations, and other stakeholders to provide guidance and support that transforms every area of our girls' lives.
Our programs utilize biblically based curriculum and evidence-based practices to encourage, inspire, and motivate our girls to pursue their purpose and live a transformed life through Jesus Christ.
As Psalms 32:8 says, "I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go: I will guide thee with mine eye." By combining faith-based principles with proven methods, we aim to make a lasting impact on the lives of young girls who need mentorship and support. Our approach aligns with our mission, culture, and devotion to Jesus Christ, empowering our girls to live boldly and purposefully.

Our Programming Strategy:
Girls of Transformation Mentoring Program, Inc. (GOT) has a clear and concise framework for achieving success, which is built around three key principles:
​
1. Plan: GOT emphasizes the importance of creating a detailed plan or roadmap for achieving goals. This involves setting clear objectives, identifying necessary steps, and outlining strategies for success.
​
2. Prepare: Preparation is key to achieving success. GOT encourages making oneself and one's resources ready for use or consideration. This might involve acquiring necessary skills, knowledge, or resources to effectively pursue one's goals.
​
3. Pursue: Pursuing one's goals requires dedication, perseverance, and a strong commitment to achieving success. GOT encourages striving to gain and seeking to attain or accomplish one's objectives, purpose, or goals.
​
By following this framework, GOT empowers young girls to develop a proactive and goal-oriented mindset, helping them navigate challenges and achieve their full potential. This approach can be applied to various areas of life, including personal growth, education, and career development.
