Camp Go Girl!

Do you remember when life was so very simple, and days revolved around playing with friends, slumber parties and summer camp? We do too, and, quite honestly, we miss those simple pleasures in life and have come to realize that they don't have to be reserved for only the young. Which is one of the reasons we started The Girlfriend Factor! And it's one of the reasons we chose a Camp theme throughout our activities and get-togethers. We provide the opportunity for women to set aside their to-do lists, their responsibilities, and their hectic schedules, if only for a little while, and remember what it's like to be a girl, to have fun, to share friendships, new and old.

When you make your donation of $100 you become an official Girlfriend and a member of Camp Go Girl! And, just for bragging rights, you'll receive a very cool customized Girlfriend Factor dog tag so you can show everyone that you are, in fact, a Girlfriend. You will be able to connect with other Girlfriends throughout the United States via our website and get involved in Girlfriend Factor activities and events, some open only to official Girlfriends.

We all have busy lives, and between caring for our families and pursuing our careers we can very easily begin to drift apart. We promise ourselves we will make that phone call, or drop by and visit that friend, but before you know it time has gone by and you feel the opportunity has passed. The Camp concept at The Girlfriend Factor was designed to give us all a great excuse to spend time with our girlfriends, nurture our relationships and hopefully create new ones.
