About the Maui GEMS Program
Maui GEMS is an empowering youth initiative designed for girls in Maui County, ages 13 to 19. Running annually from March through September, our program offers a rich array of educational classes, workshops, and a welcoming drop-in center, open most Fridays at 483 S High St, Wailuku. (Please check our calendar for details.)
Participants have the opportunity to engage in a summer internship, where they are matched with local businesswomen who serve as mentors. In addition to this, Maui GEMS hosts Friday gatherings for "Girl Talk," providing a safe space for self-esteem building, self-exploration, and mutual learning.
Our program emphasizes community involvement through volunteering and hosts career conferences to equip participants for future leadership roles. We also offer workshops to prepare the girls for sustainability and success in their personal and professional lives.

Interns will work alongside professionals in their field of interest, gaining valuable experience and insights.
Participants in the internship program will also engage in workshops and activities focused on career development, networking, and leadership. Upon completion of the internship, participants will receive a stipend and a certificate of completion, recognizing their hard work and dedication.
