Organization Details
Rock The Street, Wall Street empowers high school girls and university women by bringing the M in STEM to life through a focus on financial and investment fundamentals. We provide industry access and guidance to our students and alumnae, supporting their journey from classrooms to careers while fostering expanded participation in the capital markets.

Our programs introduce high school students to Financial & Investment Mathematics, inspiring a pathway to college and careers in finance. For university and post-graduate students, we provide meaningful access to industry events and global financial institutions, as well as foster opportunities for competitive internships and jobs, building foundations for selected careers. This access creates a sense of belonging and helps to increase the representation of women in finance, equipping them with the skills, networks, and experiences to enter and thrive in the industry.

Research shows that while girls in the US, UK, and Canada perform on par with boys in math during elementary and middle school, their performance and interest wanes significantly in high school, contributing to the "gender gap." This decline is driven by societal biases, a lack of female role models in math-related fields, and gender-based socialization. Although this gap varies across regions and cultures, it remains a widespread issue that demands urgent action.*

Studies show targeted interventions can reignite girls' interest in math narrowing the gender gap. At RTSWS, we renew girls' engagement at a critical life stage when they make key decisions about their futures. Our female financial professionals serve as real-world role models, sparking enthusiasm for finance.

Since 2012, over 7,500 girls have completed our program, helping to close gender and racial wage and wealth gaps. Our mission is also supported by male allies who champion gender equity and actively contribute to empowering the next generation of female financial leaders.
