In its sixth year of partnership with Girls Inc., Allergan Aesthetics, an AbbVie company, is teaming up with SkinSpirit to inspire girls to be strong, smart, and bold and explore career paths in STEM.
In its first year of participation, SkinSpirit will kick off the campaign with a $5,000 donation from SkinSpirit Gives, the company’s philanthropic arm. In addition, SkinSpirit will be inviting their clients to make a donation of their own from Nov. 1, 2024 through Nov. 15, 2024, with 100% of the funds raised going directly to Girls Inc. to support STEM programming, mentorship, and related career exploration to the 114,000+ girls in 350 cities and 75 affiliates nationwide.
“We are thrilled SkinSpirit is joining us to deliver additional contributions to Girls Inc.,” says Carrie Strom, President, Global Allergan Aesthetics and Senior Vice President, AbbVie, in a news release. “Girls Inc. Is an important part of our philanthropic efforts to empower girls to pursue careers in STEM and SkinSpirit is a terrific customer and advocate for the next generation of women leaders.”
“At SkinSpirit, we believe in the power of innovation and the importance of nurturing the next generation of women leaders in STEM fields,” adds Lynn Heublein, Co-Founder and CEO of SkinSpirit. “I had such a rewarding career in tech and engineering prior to aesthetics, and I’ve seen firsthand how giving women opportunities in tech can change lives. I’m thrilled to support Girls Inc. in providing young women with the tools they need to succeed in STEM. By engaging our clients in this effort, we’re not just raising funds—we’re raising awareness and building a future where more women can thrive in these critical fields.”
This initiative will be promoted through social media, in-clinic signage with QR codes, and media coverage highlighting Lynn’s journey from engineering and tech to CEO.
All funds raised during the campaign will support STEM programming that Girls Inc. provides, helping young women develop the skills, confidence, and leadership abilities necessary to pursue careers in these fields.
