Panama celebrates its first Let Girls Learn project!

The first Let Girls Learn project in Panama, a girls’ empowerment and soccer camp, was a huge success! Peace Corps Volunteer Erin Storck gathered 30 girls between the ages of nine to 16 years old, including 10-year-old Itzela.

Like all Peace Corps camps and clubs, Volunteers developed a comprehensive curriculum. On the first day, Itzela and her friends jumped right into leadership activities like lessons on using teamwork to improve on problem-solving skills group participation.

To practice, the girls tested their communication and sharing skills by passing a ball among team members.
