Every summer, Nevada Girls State brings high school juniors from across the state to the University of Nevada, Reno to run their own government for a week. Delegates campaign, win and lose elections, write legislation, and debate it on the floor. In 2026, 95 delegates wrote and debated 67 bills.
It costs $850 to serve each delegate for the week, including housing, meals, transportation, and materials. Families pay $400. Donors cover the rest. Your gift also funds scholarships, so a student whose family can’t afford the fee can still attend.
Your donation is key to helping more students who might not otherwise have the chance attend a program that could change their lives, and to helping us to achieve our mission of Empowering Women, Inspiring Communities to develop tomorrow’s leaders.
