Learn about Athena's Warehouse:

 

Athena's Warehouse is a 501c3 nonprofit dedicated to educating, inspiring, and empowering teen girls. Through enrichment programs, advocacy initiatives, and positive female role models, we equip girls with the tools and resources to become healthy, confident, and independent young women. Those we aid attend Title I high schools, and many are minorities from low-income, immigrant families. By serving at-risk communities, we encourage disadvantaged girls to realize and celebrate their full potential. Since 2009, Athena's Warehouse has awarded nine merit-based scholarships and assisted nearly 300 girls aged 16-18 in Atlanta, Georgia, and we are committed to serving hundreds more.

Athena's Warehouse was founded by Bee Nguyen, the sister of one of our GAPABA members, Phi Nguyen. Bee Nguyen founded Athena's Warehouse in 2009. The organization is a product of her love for women and girls and entrepreneurship. Her prior experiences include work with Boat People SOS, the Federal Emergency Management Agency, and most recently the Georgia Budget and Policy Institute. She graduated from the Andrew Young School of Policy Studies with a Master of Public Administration in 2012. In addition to serving as the Executive Director for Athena's, Bee is a member of the Atlanta Regional Board Millennial Committee, a mentor for the Wren's Nest, and a fellow with the 2015 Georgia Women Policy Institute program. She also hosts and facilitates a series of racial justice conversations What We Talk About When We Talk About Race.
