Hard Hats and High Hopes: Inspiring the Next Generation of Women in Construction


In this episode of The Fix, we chat with Keller Hayes, Director of Transportation & Construction GIRL, a program of the HOYA Foundation that’s inspiring the next generation of women to pursue careers in construction, transportation, and the trades. Keller shares powerful stories of impact—from 6-year-olds lighting up behind heavy equipment to young women realizing their economic potential through career exposure. With hands-on events like Transportation and Construction GIRL Day and an immersive Career Week for GIRLs, the organization is breaking down stereotypes and opening doors for girls to explore high-paying, rewarding trade careers.
