The description for the Mentorgirls.org site says:  “Our vision for this webspace is to provide an online destination where prospective and seasoned mentors can research numerous opportunities to contribute. By providing relevant and valuable resource listings, our main objective is to inspire adult women to utilize Information and Communications Technology (ICT) by becoming involved in community activism and by helping bridge the digital divide. MentorGirls.org is a great place to find out how and where to help educate and empower our girls and communities who need positive role models in our evolving cyberculture. This website and our newsletter is praised by K-12 classrooms, youth groups, computer technology centers, community leaders, and families.”
