Jessica Carter: Building a Legacy of Empowerment Through HER Sports

Jessica Carter’s journey is a testament to the transformative power of sports and community. A standout athlete in her own right, Carter’s experiences fueled a vision: to create opportunities for young girls to thrive in sports and beyond. This vision materialized as HER Sports, an organization dedicated to breaking down barriers and fostering a supportive environment where girls can excel.
HER Sports goes beyond the playing field, addressing the unique challenges faced by young female athletes. From mental health support to mentorship programs, HER Sports equips girls with the tools they need to succeed.
The organization’s impact is celebrated annually at the HER Sports Awards, a community event that brings together athletes, supporters, and community members to honor the achievements of women and girls in sports. This year’s event, held at the Paramount, promises to be an inspiring evening, featuring music, empowerment, and a call to action for continued unity and support.
Jessica Carter’s dedication and vision are creating a lasting legacy, empowering young women and shaping a brighter future for the community.
