The organizations goals are to engage teen girls through a variety of methods that supports the multiplicity of needs and challenges teen girls are facing today.

Methods
S.A.V.Y desires to bridge the gap between the services the school is able to provide and the surmountable needs of teen girls.  S.A.V.Y’s Inspire Me to Excellence^TM school based initiative is a model designed to serve teen girls through after school based group sessions. 

S.A.V.Y’s Inspire Me to Excellence, E-Mentoring initiative connects with teen girls and gives them access to receive safe and secured practical personal growth and life skills support through innovative technology based interaction—e-mail, e-journal communication and social media.

The following are things needed by girls in order to be successful and strive for excellence:

• Girls need to feel safe
• Girls need time to talk in nurturing conversations with ongoing positive relationships
• Girls need programs that encourage relationships of trust and non judgment
• Girls need relationships with positive women
• Girls need their personal and cultural strengths emphasized
• Girls need education about their bodies and making wise decisions
• Girls need to be positively affirmed
