Program Details
“They light it up blue for Autism, but girls love pink! Pink and blue make purple, so we
should light it up purple for Girls with Autism!”
The idea for “Purple Girls Glow” came from the heart of a young lady with Autism by the name of Zoe
Fagan. She recognized the need for a special place where girls with autism and related special needs could
meet and have fun!
The One World Center is excited to provide a safe place to foster the development of
the social and life skills that are essential to the success of young ladies of all
abilities. Our club activities and themes will vary monthly but will always be chosen
by our young ladies under the supportive mentorship of female community
volunteers. Below you will find more details!
