iFLY Youth

Our Mission:

iFLY Youth’s mission is to develop middle school girls of color into global leaders through international travel and community building. Our North Star is that every Black and Brown girl will have a passport that opens up a world of possibilities, increasing their exposure to better life choices, opportunities and, therefore, better life outcomes and stronger communities.

Our Camp iFLY Program is a three-week summer camp held in Washington, DC, followed by a one-week trip overseas.  We prioritize girls who normally wouldn't have the opportunity to travel due to financial restraints. Since 2017, we have given 65 girls from the Greater Washington Area the chance to explore and learn through travel to countries like Costa Rica, Colombia and Panama. In 2026, we are excited to welcome another cohort of girls into our program.
