SheRISES with Girls, Inc.
This program is a purposeful, action-driven partnership that empowers young girls to become strong, smart, and bold. It emphasizes the joint commitment of the Bradenton/Sarasota (Fl) Chapter of The Links Incorporated and Girls Inc. Sarasota to inspire and support girls' growth and leadership. This collaborative, community-focused approach highlights a shared mission to uplift and empower. Our chapter members facilitate reading sessions, and other activities are held twice a month.

Exemplifying Excellence Scholarship and Mentoring Program
The chapter designed an award-winning scholarship program that supports students financially and emotionally in obtaining a four-year degree. Chapter members serve as mentors and role models and provide individual and group mentoring sessions covering relevant topics and social activities to build a support network. The scholarship is renewed each year if the scholar maintains the required GPA.
As part of the LINKS Love HBCUs Signature Program, the chapter provides much-needed funding to students attending HBCUs (historically black colleges and universities). Enrolling at an HBCU often has higher upfront costs for Floridan students, as the schools usually have limited capacity. This program promotes the benefits of HBCU education and allows more students to access HBCU education if it aligns with their education goals. We are proud that several Alumna chapter members donated to support this program.
