Branch, Roanoke’s leading construction firm, invites all GIRLS and their parents to attend the BRANCH GIRL CONSTRUCTION EXPERIENCE!

The event will give girls opportunities to explore future careers in the construction industry. At the event, she’ll experience real-life construction, engineering, and STEM concepts in a fun, safe, and judgement-free zone. The FREE event takes place on Saturday, October 5 from 10 am to 4 pm at the Branch headquarters in Roanoke.

Here are the top five reasons SHE should attend:

1. Because she BREAKS stereotypes and BUILDS fulfilling careers: The construction industry is perceived as male-dominated, but your GIRL can excel in roles as carpenters, plumbers, foreman, project managers, contractors, and engineers. When GIRLS experience STEM-focused construction activities, they learn they can achieve great things!

2. Because she becomes CONFIDENT and ENPOWERED: Engaging in STEM-focused construction activities builds confidence and inspires her to pursue careers in fields that she may not have considered or known existed.

3. Because she LEARNS: STEM-focused construction activities will enhance her problem-solving, critical thinking, and technical skills. She’ll be prepared for a career where innovation, quick thinking, and precision are important to success!

4. Because she has OPPORTUNITY: The construction industry offers a wide range of career opportunities, from design and engineering to project management and operations. As the demand for skilled professionals in STEM fields continues to grow, women entering this industry can find rewarding and lucrative career paths.

5. Because she brings FRESH IDEAS and PERSPECTIVE: We need people like her to help build our communities. GIRLS bring diverse perspectives and innovative solutions. She can make a difference in her community!
