Our Mission.We aspire to help everyone be informed about the important decisions that they will be making. By 2020, we hope that all the people who have pre-registered are able to have a voice and for it to be heard.

We Are Advocates
Girls Build LA hopes to bring across a new wave of enthusiastic young people to go out and vote. Even if they cannot vote yet, we can help to make sure that they pre-register. We want the results of elections to reflect what the community wants, which won’t happen unless we have a majority of the population voting.

At Girls Academic Leadership Academy
We are proud to say that we more than 80 percent of our GALA Girls that are 16 and older have been succesfully pre-registered to vote. This process consisted of going to every high school advisory that had students within the ages 16 or 17 and explain to them why it is important to vote.
Registration at Spring Formal |

At the Spring Formal dance, we placed a booth in which we registered students that might have not been present when the GALA GBLA group visited the high school advisories.
Although having many activities besides at school, GALA Girls of GBLA was able to host a few activities through the school year in order to raise more awareness when it comes to voting. One of them being in a church in Orange County were we had the opportunity to talk to those attending mass.
