After all, a girl is not an object that one can treat and manipulate like a puppet, a girl is someone who needs love, kindness, and someone who understands them.

October 8, 2007 — High IntenCity Corp., a leading accessories manufacturer, recently introduced a specialty jewelry line for tweens and teens to raise proceeds and awareness for Girls Incorporated®, a non-profit organization that inspires all girls to be strong, smart, and boldSM.

Renee Levy, President of High IntenCity said, "I lead a team who cares passionately about so many issues in the world. I believe the girls who love High IntenCity products share our feelings. In approaching this project there were two things we agreed upon. First, girls of all ages want to help change the world and show they care. Second, there's no better place to start than changing the life of a girl. To that end, I am thrilled to partner with Girls Inc., an amazing organization which truly creates a better future for girls."
