Our story
A community built around possibility.
Founded by Jessica George in 2009, The Apareció Foundation supports girls and young women through education, mentorship, leadership development, and access to opportunity.
We bring people together in Chicago and Los Angeles to support girls, young women, and their families. Career Pathways is our next bold direction.
Our commitment
Young women deserve room to ask questions, develop their interests, and make informed choices. Apareció brings people and experiences into that process.
The people behind the work
Mentors, volunteers, educators, creative collaborators, and supporters each bring something different. The foundation’s community includes the people behind Félix Magazine.
