Help More Families Discover Our Books & Programs
Join the Social Squad
The Social Squad is a virtual volunteer team that shares and reposts our social media to help families, libraries, homeschool groups, and educators discover our books and programs.
With our positive alternatives to screen time for girls ages 10–15 that include books, reading challenges, life skills programs, and career exploration resources, this grassroots volunteering of time will help us grow.
The challenge? Most families still don’t know these resources exist. That’s where the Social Squad comes in.
Our Volunteers Are:
Parents & Teens
College Students
Homeschool Families
Community Supporters
Retired Professionals
Women in STEM

Why It Matters
Parents, librarians, and homeschoolers are actively searching for:
- Middle grade books girls actually want to read
- Positive alternatives to screen time
- Life skills and career exploration resources
- Creative and engaging learning experiences
But they can’t engage in something they’ve never heard about. Every share, comment, referral, and introduction helps us reach more girls and families.

Our Impact at a Glance
In just a few short years, Athenian has grown from a bold idea into a movement that is transforming how girls experience life skills. We don’t just teach skills, we build confidence, leadership, and a sense of belonging in industries where girls are often overlooked.
Books That Build Skills powered by Athenian isn’t just a Nonprofit... it’s a launchpad for girls who want to build, create, explore, design, engineer, write, fly, invent, and lead.
