Who We Are

Wellfit Girls is a nonprofit organization that offers leadership programs for girls ages 11–20. We believe that leadership starts from within the individual. Our programs help girls enhance confidence, build resiliency, and a strong sense of self through a powerful combination of personal growth, fitness, and outdoor adventure.

Our mission is to inspire, challenge and empower teen girls to climb high in all areas of life through transformational leadership programs.

What We Do

Wellfit Girls is committed to providing unique and meaningful leadership programs for teen girls in Collier and Lee County. Our comprehensive youth development model is designed to build resiliency and deepen relationships with youth through fitness & leadership training, community service, outdoor adventures & experiential learning opportunities.

We don’t just teach leadership — we guide girls on a journey of becoming their best versions of themselves. Our programs combine curriculum-based self-reflection with hands-on challenges designed to build confidence from the inside out. 

We begin with the inner work: values, identity, integrity, and vision. Then we help girls apply what they’ve learned through real-world leadership opportunities — from bold communication and conflict resolution to teamwork and service learning. 

To bring the journey full circle, each program culminates in an out-of-state hiking-based expedition that pushes girls physically, emotionally, and mentally. Whether it’s 5-days for middle schoolers or an 8-day backpacking trip in the mountains for high schoolers, these immersive experiences are transformational. Girls return stronger, braver, and ready to lead.
