Get Involved | Donate Now:Girls Quest is a nonprofit organization that nurtures girls to help them achieve their full potential and become active members of their communities by building academic and social competence. Since 1935, Girls Quest has served over 60,000 girls; each year Girls Quest enrolls over 300 girls ages 8-14 from the greater New York City and Catskills regions in its programs. Our girls participate in a series of educational and social activities that promote literacy, teamwork, creativity, and leadership. Our programs teach critical life skills all while helping girls build self-esteem, confidence, and sense of purpose. Your support will help us make a difference in a deserving girl's life!

Please follow these steps: Donate by Mail or Fax Donate a Book from Our Online Wishlist The Kauths’ generosity of spirit has been matched by the generosity of several donors who have made substantial gifts over the years. These donations have allowed us to grow into one of very few organizations which own its campsite. The gifts have also given us a modest reserve fund, which has enabled us to maintain our program in years in which other sources of funds have fallen. As a testament to the Kauths and their legacy, at this time Girls Quest is proud to announce the creation of the Ruth and Willard Kauth Society to recognize those donors making significant gifts and/or who include Girls Quest in their estate planning. We are delighted to report on the two founding gifts:
We are thrilled to welcome Ms. Jermusyk and Ms. O’Gorman as charter members of the Kauth Society. If you have already made provisions to name Girls Quest a beneficiary in your will, please let our Director of Development, Carl Niedzielski, know, so that we can recognize your generosity. You can make that happen. By becoming a SEED Sponsor, you will enable a deserving girl the opportunity to participate in our program. You will provide an opportunity to support our girls as they develop the confidence, leadership and character they need to become tomorrow’s leaders!
