On October 21, 2023, Girls Inc. of Memphis proudly celebrated the grand opening of the Patricia C. Howard Center, a 20,000-square-foot facility located in Frayser. This $8 million investment is a vibrant hub for girls, families, and the community — featuring a community event center, workrooms, a fully stocked kitchen, greenhouse, farm, and celebration lawn.

“Our girls need access to quality, and they need to be able to see possibilities. If we can’t get them to those possibilities, then we need to make them accessible to them.”
— Sylvia Martinez, President & CEO, Girls Inc. of Memphis

The new center is designed to serve up to 120 girls daily, providing a safe, enriching space full of opportunity and support.
