How Do I Start a Campus Chapter?
She’s the First is represented on middle, high school and university campuses all over the country by independent chapters under the direction of trailblazing student leaders. Our independent campus chapters host one at least fundraiser per semester for a sponsorship in the She’s the First directory, while spreading awareness monthly through their residence halls, student center, local community, and of course, social media.
Where do I begin?
First thing’s first: you’ll need to recruit your own Dream Team. Changing the world is no easy task and you can’t do it alone! Find fellow students to compose your executive board, and a faculty advisor to help oversee the administrative details. When your team is in place, you’re ready to submit the application! The application deadline is September 15th for fall semester applicants and January 15th for spring semester applicants.
What happens next?
New chapter applications are reviewed each semester by our Campus Coordinator. Once your application is approved, you will receive welcome materials and access to our campus-exclusive resource website. If you have any questions about the application process, email campus@shesthefirst.org.
