Who we are

Empowering Women and Girls to Discover Their Potential

The Ore Place is a nonprofit organization dedicated to empowering women and girls to reach their full potential. Like miners of ore, we believe every woman carries untapped treasures within: dreams, talents, and brilliance waiting to shine, and as a friend, we walk alongside to ensure you achieve your goals. At the Ore Place, we create space, provide tools, and build community so that these treasures are uncovered, refined, and brought to light. 

                                                                                Who we serve

We work with women and girls at all stages of life: young girls discovering their passions, professionals advancing their careers, and entrepreneurs building and scaling their businesses. We also intentionally focus on inclusion, ensuring women with disabilities have access to opportunities, mentorship, and resources through digital and in-person platforms.
