Fueling the Future of Women in Industry
About us
This One's for the Gals is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization based in South Texas that is helping girls with career exploration and workforce development in construction, energy and manufacturing. We like to say that we talk to girls about careers that not very many people talk to girls about from Skilled Trades to STEM and everything in between! Our reach can only go so far but our goal is for others to see what we are doing and ask how they can do the same for the young women in their community. Are you interested in helping us Fuel the Future of Women in Industry? We would love to help show you how!

Happy Friday! Today we are excited to share that Doggett Toyota Lift has committed to being a Demonstration Investor of our 2024 Rio Grande Valley Women in Industry Career & Education Expo!! “Doggett stubbornly strives to be the service and support supplier of choice to heavy equipment users in all of the markets we serve. That is, to provide repair and maintenance services on all competitive brands on a guaranteed and measurable basis which, in the end, allows the end user to spend more time on direct business requirements/needs while allowing Doggett to become their trusted equipment specialist/partner.” #doggett This amazing event, which is also a registered The Manufacturing Institute - MI as an official #MFGDay event, will be a day for high school aged girls from around the RGV to come together to learn about career opportunities in construction, energy, manufacturing and maritime - careers they didn't think of previously, didn't know existed or didn't think were for them!

A few weeks ago we took an awesome group of gals to visit the Carbon Capture Technology Expo North America in Houston and the day after we took a little drive to Pasadena to visit to The LyondellBasell Center for Petrochemical, Energy, & Technology at San Jacinto College! It was so good that we asked our videographer to create a highlight video of it all on its own and as usual, they knocked it out of the park!! Huge thanks to Jeff Pearce for setting us up with Shawn Dickerson for this tour of their state-of-the-art training facility! We can’t wait to go back!! 😊 The Twins Videography San Jacinto College LyondellBasell
