Camp Courage

The First Responders Society is an incorporated non-profit company established by firefighter Andréa Speranza, in January 2006, for the purpose of introducing young women and gender-diverse youth aged 15- 18 to careers as first responders; primarily paramedics, police officers, and firefighters.

The ultimate goal is that the youth will leave with a sense of empowerment and the confidence to believe that they can achieve any goal, career or dream they desire.

"You Can Be Anything"

The BARBIE brand’s slogan states "You Can Be Anything" and Barbie is the proof. She’s grown up and today advocates for social and cultural issues, promotes inclusion, breaks down barriers of diversity, and helps girls and young women to find their place within an increasingly global community. This mission has inspired, and continues to inspire, Barbie creations in order to encourage entire generations to be themselves, free from fear or barriers.
