About Us
Rise Up. Speak Up. Join Up.
Established in October of 2020, the Coyote Girl Up club is a club located in Frisco, Texas, that's dedicated to advocating for gender equality for all on a school, community, city-wide, national, and global scale. Our goal is to change the status quo for gender minorities, and spread awareness about problems that people may not know exist.
** WE ARE NOT AFFILIATED WITH HERITAGE HIGH SCHOOL OR FRISCO ISD **
About Our Partner(s)
SheSupply
​
SheSupply is a local nonprofit in the DFW area on a mission to provide a sense of decency and cleanliness to women in need. They collect and distribute menstrual products and undergarments to people who cannot afford them.
​
Since 2021, Girl Up has partnered with SheSupply with our annual donation drive, Donate, Period, where we stand strong as one of SheSupply's biggest donors with over 10000+ products donated since the start of the drive. Starting 2022, we will be partnering with SheSupply for other ways to advocate for menstrual health, from creating a page to donate for North Texas Giving Day, trying to get product accessibility in our school district, to featuring SheSupply in our Instagram, blog, and podcast.
​
We are so grateful to SheSupply for everything they're doing with us to help us spread the word about the importance of menstrual health, and we're looking forward to more awesome collaboration in the future.

FRC Team 8816 - Coyotronics
FRC Team 8816, better known as Coyotronics, is a First Robotics Competition team currently in their second year of operation. During their rookie year, they won all of the possible rookie awards at the regional level, winning the prestigious Rookie All Star award for their efforts to get robotics involved in the local community and advocacy for Girls and LGBTQ+ in STEM.
​
As two organizations within our local community that are passionate about getting gender minorities involved in STEM, we've hosted a Women in STEM "feminar" with them last year where we got girls and the LGBTQ+ community at our school excited about STEM and the opportunities presented in FIRST Robotics.
​
We're grateful that we have the opportunity to work with Coyotronics, and plans for more STEM involvement events are in the works!
