Our Goal

Iron Girl Project, Inc. (IGP) proudly supports high school athletes through the annual Alexea G. Karpinski Memorial Scholarship.

Each spring, a select group of twelfth-grade recipients are rewarded in the amount of $2,253. These students have demonstrated how they draw upon sports to become humble leaders with compassion, tenacity, and true grit in all aspects of their lives. 

IGP’s goal is to encourage student athletes on their journey to create a positive legacy, one that has an impact on their teammates, families, and communities.
