Description
WOO is creating a shift in what is possible for youth in the areas of leadership, empowerment, self esteem, school performance and career planning. A shift from disempowerment, differences, and indecision to possibility, acceptance and opportunity.
One of our highlighted programs is Shortstack™. Shortstack™ is a teen driven fashion and modeling program. Its goal is to allow young girls who do not fit the "normal" model standards to be a part of charitable fashion events. For years, girls have been rejected from the modeling industry because they are too short. Shortstack was created by highschool students under the guidance of Windows of Opportunity, Inc. to give these "short" girls a chance at achieving their dreams as models and empower them to love themselves for who they are.
